LOCATION-This is a lovely vintage apartment located away from the touristy area. It takes about 15 mins walk to Sangrada Familia and 6 mins walk to metro station el clot. The location is not bad but I personally would prefer a more centered area for the price of this place. I did book three weeks prior to the dates and I think it would be cheaper if you book earlier. There are a strip of shops and restaurants downstairs for locals and it's very convenient.
COMFORT- They have clean sheets and most of the necessities you will need, including hair dryer.
We were there in mid-June when the weather was about 80-85 during the day. It gets a little hot in the apartment. Opening the windows helps with the air flows but there is a bar with outdoor seating right downstairs of the windows so you are also letting some cigarette smokes and noise in. We were provided with two fans and that was enough for us because we only have three peoples in two rooms.
The shower is a little small and the water temperature is not very steady which is understandable for the old apartment.
COMMUNICATION/HOST- Goldy was very helpful prior to our stay and responded to our messages within 12 hours most of the time. They were able to accommodate us getting there a little late. Goldy wasn't able to meet us but her mom met us there.
**I did find the description of amenities not very accurate. It did not specify the €10 charge to use the washer nor that we needed to tell them in advance to use the washer. I didn't tell her that we are using it prior to our arrival so there was no detergent. Goldy didn't ask us to pay since we have to buy our own detergent. Also, in the amenities it also stated that there will be breakfast. After I asked Goldy, she told us that because we checked in later in the night, so we don't have the one time pastry that they usually provided for the guested when they check in. I think the description needed to be changed if they are only providing pastries for one day.
