We really enjoyed our time in Barcelona. Agus was an attentive and lovely host. He met us at the apartment and stayed in consistent contact to make sure things were ok. There are not so many rentals that are family (child) friendly, so we were happy to come across a bright, clean apartment. My husband and I were traveling with our 1 year old, so keep in my that the commentary is coming from the perspective of traveling parents.

I had concerns about being in Barcelona in August without any AC. Agus made sure that we had a fan in the apartment, and keeping the windows open created a really nice cross breeze in the apartment. However, be forewarned that it can still be bit a warm overall during this time of year so you won't be coming back to a blast of nice cold air at home. Another bit of info that was written in a previous review is that the walk up is actually the 5th floor and not the 4th. The 1st floor is labeled as a ground floor of sorts, so if you're not in shape or don't like stairs, this is not the place for you. We managed just fine, even with a baby, but it can get a bit cumbersome with a stroller every day.

The shuttle service suggested by Agus was a good value in my opinion. The fridge stocking was not in my opinion (the wine and chocolate others mention comes at a charge just FYI) and maybe more worthwhile to those who are having more extended stays.

Overall, it's a lovely apartment. It probably would have been better suited for us had we not been traveling with a baby, but this did not prevent us from enjoying our stay overall.
