This apartment and its owner were fabulous. He communicated well and explained things to us well but overall he has a lovely place to rent for a stay in Barcelona. It's a wonderful combination of modern and old and in a good safe location. We'd recommend it to others. Other reviewers have criticized the lack of privacy with the 3rd bedroom (and the 2nd bath area) with the pull curtains but they actually work fine. And with fans everywhere and air conditioning it should be comfortable all summer. Lighting is a little weak except in the kitchen but we weren't there to sit in bed and read. And the TV had a good choice of channels. And you have to love the elevator and all the supplies the host left for our use.
