Staying at this flat was an experience with both positive and the negative sides.
The design of the flat is very special. There is an absolute attention to detail, which makes the space both comfortable and beautiful. The street is extremely quiet and charming too.
On the other hand, the location is not most convenient: 15 minutes walk from the Poblenou centre and the beaches. The AC was heavily leaking and repair works had to take place, after which it was blocked at 19 degrees, which I found pretty chilly. The flat doesn’t have windows except for the patio opening, so fresh air is missing unless AC is on. The bed is located near the entrance door, which is a glass door. The bright street light and security light above the entrance door make it quite difficult to sleep at night. The AC technician switched the security light off to help solve the issue, but a day later a noisy alarm went on and we didn’t know how to stop it. Rut was traveling and her mother kindly tried to help. Eventually, the security light was brought back, which stopped the alarm a few hours later but sleeping with the light was an issue. Finally, I was forced to check in later than indicated on the listing.
Overall, the flat is very stylish, but the experience was rather stressful due to the points above and to Rut’s rather harsh way to handle things, including accusing me of not liking the security light in my face at night and of her technician switching it off.
