Our stay was ok, not amazing, just ok. From the reviews posted by other guests I was expecting a bit more, but this always happens to me on airbnb. The location on where the building is is good, El Born, lots of bars and restaurants etc. There is not much privacy given how close other buildings are to you. You can literally see what the neighbors are watching in their computers or TV, but I guess this is the architecture of the old city of Barcelona (Born, Gotico etc.). The kitchen is poorly basic, literally few forks and knives, pots and pans from ikea. The sofa in the living room could use a good cleaning. We needed extra towels and garbage bag and they were given to us easily, that was good. It was around 6 degree when we arrived in Barcelona and the heat in the apartment was turned off. The AC is the way to heat up the apartment, which by the way works only in the living room so if you want the bedroom to be heated you need to leave the door open. To me all these are minors details however, again, given the reviews I was expecting more.
