Flavio was really nice and quick in responding to any questions we had, but my stay at his apartment wasn't as expected.
The first night we woke up due to an overwhelming rancid smell hanging in the apartment. This seemed to be the new air conditioner that wasn't working properly. This got fixed the next day, but the smell came back now and again unfortunately.

The apartment is on the top floor and there is no elevator, so if you have a reduced mobility I wouldn't recommend renting the apartment.

The stairs to the top room is very steep, an adventure when you drank a couple Sangria's ;)

What is really good is that it's a 2/3 minute walk to the middle of the ramblas and loads of small supermarkets are located nearby. There are loads of books on Barca and the wifi in the apartment is very good.
