Location is the key highlight here which we really enjoyed the most. Walking distance to most attraction one would like to see in Barcelona. Even though the metro stop is only couple of blocks away we mostly walked everywhere and it felt safe in the night. The location has a restaurant right outside which was nice for early breakfast and few more places to eat, organic super market in front of building and few super markets around the block. The apartment is a 2 BR + 2 Bath on the top floor with a roof terrace having nice city views and great sunshine. Check-in was as described. Apartment is spacious with basic amenities a bit dated but acceptable. Unfortunately we lost heat, access to hot water and some light flickering on the first day of arrival due to a loose electricity connection which was tough for our family as it was bit chilly and we had to deal with it during the night as it could not be fixed same day. With the host outside the country we had to coordinate thru an acquaintance which took a bit long to communicate. All issues were finally resolved next afternoon which was a welcome relief. Host had informed us before hand the elevator in the building was under construction but reality of 6 flights of stairs with 18-20 steps each hauling the luggage and climbing every time after coming back tired from day excursion was daunting. Also the dust from construction work during the day would leave layers of dust on apartment floor, staircase railings which needed to be cleaned was a bit unpleasant especially if you have allergies.
Other than the issues this place has good views, bright sunshine, AWESOME location and enough place for a family with kids.
