Novous Homes were very friendly and all the contacts spoke/wrote English well. The apartment was modern with exposed brick and Ikea furniture, very artsy and beautifully decorated. It had all the amenities we needed for our stay, expect for a dryer but it wasn't needed as there was a clothes rack to air dry your clothes
The location was decent but not centrally located to a more popular district, the Gothic Quarter. It's in a quieter area on a side street which was great until you hear how noisy the neighbors in the adjacent buildings are in the morning so don't expect to sleep past 8:00 am. Maybe it was just during our particular stay but every morning between 8-9 am someone was aggressively vomiting or dry heaving outside on their patio.
There are alot of restaurants along Carrer de Blai near the apartment to choose.
We would definitely stay again next time we are in Barcelona but consider it more if the price dropped slightly or if the Barcelona tourist tax was included in the overall price
