We generally liked the apartment, but there were a few points. We didn't have warm water and we told the owner/manager. He just assumed we probably weren't capable of using common water tap, what is actually quite an insult ^^ And then he just sent a number that I should call to get it fixed. In my mind, that would have been entirely his job. Why would I call someone to get another persons apartment fixed... im sorry but that makes no sense. Furthermore my friends were not able to sleep because it was super loud in the bedroom facing the street during the night. They said they could hear the subway all night. But now the good points - the apartment was very clean and beautiful. The kitchen worked well and was also equipped well. The area isn't very beautiful and sometimes a bit smelly, but I felt like that's what most of Barcelona looks like. If you want a beautiful area, it's el Gotic.
