While the location of this accommodation is difficult to rival, there were somethings that we did not expect.
Pros: The location is incredible. You are located right next to / on the edge of the gothic quarter, and some of the best restaurants are quite literally around the corner (including on Picasso often visited). Communication prior to our arrival was great and the room is fairly large.
However, please note the downsides we faced.
1. The walls are incredibly thin. I wish I could emphasize it more. I could hear beads dropping to the floor, one by one with each little bounce. It also made us feel like we couldn't speak at a normal volume. It also meant that we heard everything else happening near rooms around us, from conversations to snoring.
2. The Soler family occupies the room directly across from your door. While that seems normal, every single day we were there, Roger's father (assuming in late 80's) sat in a wheel chair directly facing our door, all throughout the day. 9/10 times we saw him. He is incredibly kind and nice, and we attempted some conversation, but couldn't say much do to language barriers. So every time we left our bedroom to use the shower, bathroom, etc. we had to walk within 3 feet of him. It was just uncomfortable because we felt the need to acknowledge him each time and chat with him, but all we could do is nod and smile. If you are looking to have more personal space, I would not recommend staying here.
3. Roger was incredibly friendly and helpful through messaging. I met his mom when we arrived, but did not meet him until roughly our second or third day there. When I saw him in person, I greeted him and expected to chat a bit and he blew me off, barely acknowledged me, and just walked down the hall. It was strange because he was the one I was communicating with and he didn't even bother to say a word. From that moment on I felt like we were there to just fill a room.
While it's not bad for a few nights, I wouldn't count on being able to fully unwind here.
