Alex's place was great! I stayed for over 3 months and had no issues at all. The place is just as pictured with a nice open space. The apartment's location is very convenient, just 4 min walk from Plaza Catalunya Metro Station (a transportation hub within BCN) and Urquinaona Station. It is also close to La Rambla and many other shopping stores. And even though is close to busy spots, the street that the apartment faces is very quite, specially at night. I would definitely look to stay here if I come back.
