It is a nice and comfortable apartment. Max said he would change the curtains for opaque ones, but he never did. It’s very bright in the morning since the bedroom is facing east. So it’s a bit of an aggressive wake up at 7am. Some people don’t mind that, some do.
Similarly, if you have a light sleep and happen to have late neighbours at the time if your stay, you might be kept awake overhearing every conversation. The wall is really thin.
These are issues I guess most people are not vulnerable to. But if you have sensitive hearing like I do, you may want to consider.Truth be told, you may consider a different destination for your holidays altogether since barcelona is a really noisy city.
Having warned the more vulnerable to noise, I have to say that the apartment is nice and good value. I wouldn’t call it central as some say, but then bcn is not a huge city, and has good public transport. So a five minutes walk to the metro is all you need.
