We really enjoyed our stay in Barecelona, and part of it is due to Ana's apartment. It was exactly as advertised (very nice) and perfectly clean (including towels, bed sheets). The hostess was there to welcome us, and she spent a moment giving us useful tips about the city and great places to eat. Poblenou neighborhood is very calm, restaurants are pretty cheap but yet tasty and the beach is reachable by foot (10 min. walking). We'll definitely come back.
