Anna's apartment has positives and negatives. We stayed in May 2016 for three nights.

Positives - lovely apartment with all the necessary facilities provided to a high standard. Excellent location in the heart of the Gothic Quarter, close to La Rambla and easy walking distance to Placa de Catalunya. Reasonably priced and both Anna and Alfredo were very helpful and easy to deal with in advance and on arrival.

Negatives - unfortunately the noise in the building really is a big problem. The walls, ceiling and floor are so thin that you can hear everything that is going on in all of the surrounding apartments all of the time. The lift shaft also adjoins the apartment and you can hear it going up and down constantly. One night was particularly bad when we were kept awake by the neighbours above for most of the night. I don't suppose there is much that can be done about this, it's just the way the building is constructed.

If you are not concerned about the noise - for example if you are planning to stay out late yourself - then this apartment is a good option and I would recommend it. However, if you are relying on getting a good night's sleep then it is only fair that you are aware of this.
