The apartment is in a quieter area (which I like) but was close enough to walk to most things I was interested in. (15 minutes to Sagrada Familia, 15 minutes to Arc de Triomf station, 30 minutes to the Gothic Quarter, 10 minutes to Carefour Express). The kitchen had lots of pots and pans and utensils; and oils, salt and pepper that other guests had left behind. I only used the main bedroom and the mattress was comfortable, however the bed itself was noisy and moved easily which is annoying and distracting for a couple. The shower water was hot. The wifi was a bit slow and variable. You could watch videos but it would stop sometimes and buffer and the speed varied quite a bit from OK to unusable. The apartment is older than the photos make it appear, however, it's large and has probably everything you need, and the balcony is great for having a cocktail or coffee. The host asked when I would arrive and the management company they use was supposed to be there to meet me when I arrived and I even messaged them when I was on the train to confirm, and yet I still had to stand in the lobby waiting for almost 1 hour before the guy arrived to let me in (Though he was late, he was friendly and gave me a good tour of the apartment and amenities.) Barcelona hotels and apartments are expensive and this apartment was a good deal relatively speaking so I'm not complaining too much. I'd consider staying there again if I was in BCN.
