This apartment was in such a fun and vibrant location, right off Placa d'Espanya and enabled us to walk everywhere that we wanted to visit, it's also close to a metro stop. The magic fountain was fun to experience every night walking back from dinner. You will hear street noise from the apartment but it didn't bother us, it's really nice to be able to see people walking and enjoying cafes.
The apartment itself was clean and had everything we needed, coffee, tea, sugar, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and a hairdryer. Of course towels, bedding etc as well. There were a few things that needed some cosmetic touch ups but definitely not deal breakers.
Parking was a plus as well and saved my husband a trip back to the airport. We had some problems with parking, not the fault of the hosts, their directions were good, but we arrived at the height of rush hour and had people behind us honking so the entrance to the lot only caught my eye at the last minute and I'm afraid it put us behind schedule. I suggest the host send photos of the parking garage as it will make it easy to identify quickly in case of a repeat situation. Once we had that it was easy.
There are stores nearby if supplies are needed for bottled water etc.
Full disclosure: there are stairs for people that have mobility issues and there is a city tax of 4 euros per person not included in the Air bnb price that needs to be paid in cash.
All in all a very good stay, a good value and we recommend and would stay there again. Thank you!
