We had a great stay at Sebastian's apartment. It's very spacious and ideal for a big family. It was equipped well with all the essentials you'll need. There is also heating throughout the whole apartment which comes in handy and works great during the cold months. The apartment is located in a very nice neighborhood of Gracia, about a 1 minute walk from a bus stop and about a 5 min walk from the metro stop. There are many shops and restaurants close by. The downtown (La Rambla etc.) is about 15 -20 min on foot. The communication with Sebastian was excellent. Overall, we cannot think of any "cons" about this place and we hope to choose the same place when we come back. :-)
