The positive: the location is excellent, just a short 10 min walk to La Rambla and Catalonia square. Away from the city noise. But close to the activities, bistros and cafes. The communication with the agency was very good and respond was quick. Great comfortable bed. Great water pressure.
The negative: the pictures that you see were taken with a wide angle lens camera and make the place look way bigger than it actually is. The place can use a fresh coat of paint pretty much everywhere. The bath tub was painted white and the paint is peeling off with two large rust spots on the tub.
We were staying in September so it wasn’t really hot outside +25C during the day but in a heat of a summer the AC wouldn’t be able to keep up for sure. It is very weak. Also, they are conserving power and the power shuts off the moment you open the door from the Apartaments and it also kills the AC so the place isn’t cooling off if you are not inside the Apartament. That can be a real bugger when it’s hot outside.
