We were at at Sivgin's place for one night, but we enjoyed our stay. It was close to the Poble Sec Metro and a popular main street full of bars, restaurants, supermarkets and clubs, however, in the listing it said it was a 10 minute walk from Placa Catalunya which it is not. It is about a 15 minute walk from Placa Espanya (Catalunya is about a 30 minutes walk). It still ended up being located in quiet, interesting neighborhood so I didn't mind the difference. The rooms were a good size, and the beds were comfy. The bathroom is quite small, so I'm not sure how we would've liked that if our stay had been longer. It's a no-frills apartment; basic but definitely worth the value. It is mentioned in the listing that there is no lift, so if you have large luggage, I do not recommend this place, as it is 4 floors up. Sivgin was quick to communicate, and very nice. Overall, Sivgin's apartment was what we needed for our stay.
