The location and communication with host were both excellent. This is in a prime location for good restaurants and Gaudi designs (2 blocks from La Pedrera or Casa Milà, 20 minute walk to La Sagrada Familia). The biggest issues were paying 50 Euros when we first arrived (for a late check-in and city taxes; we knew we'd have to pay but it still felt like an attempt to get extra cash from us) and the poor cleanliness of the apartment. The pictures online are not accurate. Our room was on the principal floor, and we think there are other, better units managed by the host in the same building. The bathroom is incredibly small with the clothes washer positioned right at your feet if you are seated on the toilet (a tall person's knees will touch the washer). The bedroom is small and bare. There were no plants, no clothes dryer except a drying rack, almost no toiletries provided except hand soap, and some information on the listing is inaccurate (e.g., check-out time, self check-in is NOT possible). We would not stay here again, but we would look in the same neighborhood.
