We spend 3 days in the apartment and everything was nearly perfect. Arma welcomed us and was very sympathic and friendly. Liked her for the first view :) She showed us everything and answered our questions. The neighborhood is very safe with familys and younger people, many bars, cafes, supermarkets and the metro nearby. (Very easy to find from Plaza Espana). We really liked that the sleeping room was so dark. You can hear a bit of the street noice, but that's normal if you want to stay in the city center. For a spanish city it was perfectly quit :) We found everything we needed (and more) in the kitchen. And had fun watching spanish tv with subtitels. we would totally recommend this apartment. You can't find a better one in Barcelona for this price. We'll come back :)
