The best thing about the apartment is its location in the heart of beautiful downtown Barcelona, near many restaurants, sights and public transportation. The apartment itself, however, leaves much to be desired. The pictures on the website must be at least 20 years old. They make the apartment look spacious, airy, bright and nicely decorated. In fact, it was dingy and badly in need of renovation. The kitchen, also, looks very different in reality than in the pictures, and lacks many essentials that other Airbnb's we've stayed in provided, such as instructions on how to use the appliances, dishwasher soap, cloth and/or paper towels, a corkscrew that works, etc.
The apartment is poorly designed in regard to bedrooms and bathrooms: The biggest bathroom is attached to one bedroom that accommodates two people, while those staying in the other three bedrooms are required to share a very small bathroom. A last disappointment with this apartment was the comforters I wanted to use when the air got chilly: They were quite dirty.
