The location is excellent - I could walk everywhere. I was kept fit by the stairs - there are a lot of them and they are narrow. I stayed during February and it was very cold; I'd recommend staying in the summer when BCN is warmer! The apartment had everything I needed. The coffee machine was a nice touch. The kitchen was small but I don't cook so it was fine. I showered at the gym so I didn't use the shower in the apartment but there was always hot water. I was asked to sign a contract and had to pay $500 cash for a deposit outside of AirBnB. I got the cash deposit back on the day I left minus $115 for electricity. There was some nice welcoming touches when I arrived - chocolates, some cava and some fruit. The apartment was super clean. Communication was excellent. Maite is very friendly and met me when I arrived and was on time when I left. I stayed in the apartment for 5 weeks for work in Barcelona as a single occupant, so whilst the apartment was small it was perfect for me.
