This apartment was exactly as pictured. Very comfortable and in a great location! Close to two metro lines and plenty of restaurants. Klaus provided tea, coffee, a fruit basket and crackers as well as several bottles of water. Beds were very comfortable and the outdoor patio was very nice. Not much of a view being in the back of the building but still nice. Washing machine was very much appreciated as was the outdoor clothesline. Some reviews mentioned the metro running under the apartment but it was negligible. A slight vibration like very distant thunder that I thought it was at first. The sidewalk cafes and a restaurant/bar below us could get loud but not enough to interfere with sleep and I'm a light sleeper. Here's where the apartment being in the back came in handy. Klaus was quickly responsive to any questions we had and a pleasant and helpful host. All in all, I would highly recommend this apartment for a stay in Barcelona.
