First off this apartment is in fantastic location. The surrounding area has a great vibe about it with plenty of cafes and restaurants. 5 star location. Paco was very communicative and friendly.
Unfortunately Inside the partment looks very dated apart from the living room. Although it is listed as having aircon it's only in the main living room and one bedroom. The aircon in the living room isn't really upto the task although did help a bit. This leaves the other 2 bedrooms pretty unbearable with the heat.
The bathroom is really dated and looks dirty with the old grout around the bath black and the radiator is rusted and dirty. The kitchen worktops were a bit sticky and the cupboards contained lots of chipped bowls and plates. The cutlery was not cleaned properly. Considering there is a charge for cleaning it's surprising.
There was a lack of pillows available. One pillow for each person. The pillows resambled a small cushion as opposed to the normal size pillows I was used to.
Overall we loved Barcelona but the apartment was disappointing. Great location but not too comfortable.
