The apartment is exactly like on the pictures. The location is very convenient, next to a subway station (Parallel), and walking distance to many places of interest (15 min-ish to La Rambla & Mercado de la Boqueria, 20 min-ish to the Cathedral & Gothic quarter, 20 min-ish to Plaça d'Espanya where the Aerobus stops, etc ...). We did not get to meet Anders in person, but he was very accommodating and the check-in/out went smoothly.
