There are 2 main things about this apartment that make it good: the location and the view from the balcony. It really is a 5 minute walk to Las Ramblas, to the metro, to restaurants, to the marina (although if you want to go to the beach you'll have to walk about 25 minutes). The view from the balcony is also beautiful and the sunset is really incredible. But I think I had a different experience from the previous guests. I did not find the bed comfortable, although after 2-3 nights I got used to it. There was no "breakfast", except only for a coffee machine. The hosts were absent, which for me is not really an issue but some people might expect the hosts to be more helpful during their stay. Overall I expected to have a better experience.
