The apartment was fine and the photos are a true representation. I found it to be very spacious and clean and I enjoyed the coffered ceiling in the bedroom! I would say however that the experience does lack the personal touch that you often get with Airbnb; be it either personal service or quirky personal touches. I would guess this is because it is owned by a larger company and those employed to preside over it are not its direct benefactors. It is a faff having to get the key, but that being said there is a luggage locker near by in Plaça de Catalunya, so you could leave your bags there and get the bus up to the key collection office. I was fully prepared for all of this so providing you are too you will have a pleasant stay here. For location alone it is superb.
