The location was great if you want to have the Garcia neighborhood experience, instead of all the touristy overload. Easy to jump on the metro to get to all the tourist attractions.
The apartment has 2 bathrooms, which comes in handy, and we enjoyed the good size balcony.
I think the apartment could use a bit of refreshing. Lights were out above both bathroom sinks. A bathroom towel hook or rack would help. There are places that could use some paint touch ups. Couch is pretty old. A side table would be a good addition and maybe some art work in the main living area. I saw some screws in the wall, so maybe there used to be.
I know that the description said bare minimum was supplied, but some kitchen towels and bathroom hand towels would have been appreciated. Bed comforters weren’t covered by a sheet cover, so doesn’t feel very hygienic unless they are being washed after every visit, which seems unlikely.
I feel like with a few changes I would have rated the place higher. We enjoyed our visit in Barcelona.
