Location location! Just as all the other reviews stated. Right near a major metro line, very walkable to Gothic Quarter, Las Ramblas, and El Raval. One block behind is the best Pintxo street in the city. The quarters are tight for 2 people staying for 1 week - there is only one closet, so you'll have to live out of your suitcases. The shower was always warm, the bed was firm and comfortable, and the pillows were great. There is a convenience store and bar downstairs and a cafe with coffee and breakfast at the end of the block. Vincent was very quick with responses and suggested a great waiting area at the bar below the apartment until he arrived with the keys.
