We stayed here over New Year with our three children and had a great time. The apartment is seconds away from bustling La Rambla, making it super easy to get out and about. The rooms were spacious and everything was beautifully clean. We even had a gift of a bottle of cava and a bottle of wine from the owner, as well as a whole pack of Nespresso capsules. Also, some beautiful soaps in the bathroom. As previous reviewers have said, you will need to expect a certain level of street noise: this apartment really is right in the centre of town. On two of our nights here there was unfortunately considerable noise from building renovations taking place directly upstairs. It stopped as soon as I went up and talked to the builders. I don't believe that our host knew about these works, and they did not cause us too much of a problem. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone who would like to stay in comfort, right in the centre of Barcelona!
