The location is not the best when you want to visit Barcelona. You need quiet long from the airport to the apartment and from the metro it’s only uphill to the apartment.
We chose the digital key which is a great solution to facilitate the check in and you can’t lose a key. Luckily we did it for both of us because it did not always work on the second phone - maybe a little tip, to have a back up.
The apartment is not newly renovated and was not perfectly clean. The bathroom is full of mould and very dark (black tiles, black shower curtain, not the best light)
The kitchen is quiet nice and big enough to cook, also had pepper, oil and coffee filters … pans etc were also included in the equipment of the kitchen.
The arm rests of the sofa were broken.
The sun on the balcony is only in the morning till early afternoon .
We had the bad luck that the water boiler broke. Unfortunately it took the agency almost the whole day to send someone to Check it (couldn’t use any water, toilet etc). The boiler had to be replaced, which at least happened the same day in the evening… still we lost a whole day because of it.
After lots of writing back and forth we had to compromise on a compensation… unfortunately not a whole day was compensated and definitely not without discussion.
The support of Airbnb was no help at this point either.
Other than that, on a positive note, the apartment is close to the park guell and the bunkers (beautiful view over the city)
Lots of little super markets close by, bakery and a shop with everything you don’t even think you need :)
