The location of this apartment is excellent! it is only a couple of blocks away from Plaza Catalunya and multiple transportation options, including the bus that comes directly from and to the airport. In our particular case, the check-in process was not good. We were requested the day before check-in to download an app by which we would obtain a virtual key. The first entry step to the app was a 6 or 7 digit code which I had not received in any communication. Thus, I had to log into AirBnB and search for the phone number to call the host. After multiple call attempts I reached someone that dictated me an 8 digit code over the phone which worked to open the door. Bear in mind that we were traveling from the US. Landed in Barcelona at 8AM and were trying to check-in at 3PM as per the booking. The host rep over the phone indicated that maybe their would be physical keys in the apartment, but there were not. The code worked for the remaining of the stay. Additionally, the shower in the 2nd bathroom did not have hot water. Thus, it was not usable. All 6 guests were required to use 1 shower. Not the plan when I had actively searched and booked a 2 full bathroom apartment. I communicated the lack of hot water via phone to the host on day 2 and the host indicated after the technician's visit on that day that there was nothing they could do. No fix possible. These 2 things might have been circumstantial but I thought I would share.
