This apartment is very nice, especially when you compare it to hotel prices in the area. The location is fantastic. This neighborhood is beautiful (lots of restaurants and high end shopping) and the apartment is close to the Girona metro station, making all of Barcelona accessible. The apartment was also clean and comfortable. It's also very easy to find once you are off the metro. The Picasso suites staff was generally very responsive.
We did have two issues - the Internet and the shower.
The wifi was basically non-existent in the apartment. We couldn't get a signal at all in the bedroom and had a very weak, inconsistent signal in the living area. The only place the Internet really worked was in the downstairs. If you stay here, don't rely on the wifi in the apartment.
The shower is also very, very tiny. Showers and bathrooms in Europe are typically much smaller, but this shower was uncomfortably small. The drain was also entirely backed up, almost to the point that the water was about to overflow out of the sides.
All in all, this apartment was a good value and has great aesthetic appeal (good styling). And, the location can't be beat. However, it needs a bit of TLC and attention to detail.
