Simona met us for check-in. We did not meet Vali. Simona was very nice and helpful. She was also prompt in communication over the Airbnb app. The apartment is very cute and modern. It was very clean! It was within walking distance to Las Ramblas and other charming parts of town. About 5-10 min cab to Sagrada Familia. Right next door to a little market where we were able to buy things for our everyday needs. The apartment had good wifi and tv. The living room was a nice space for our family of 5 to spend time in. We would have rated this apartment 5 stars except for a couple things that I believe are out of the hosts' control but still negatively affected our stay, unfortunately. The master bedroom is right off the living room, so the door needed to be shut for us to sleep at night if anyone else stayed up in the apartment after we went to bed. Unfortunately this made for a few very hot nights of sleep, and we were unable to adjust the heat in the room. The master bedroom was also subject to some VERY loud neighbors, both directly behind the bed and one floor above the room. This made it very difficult to sleep. The room right off the street was also very loud due to traffic and people walking outside at night. Most unfortunate was the smell in the master bathroom. There was a distinct smell of sewage coming from the bathroom that was overwhelming. We kept the bathroom door shut which helped prevent it from permeating the bedroom so much, but whenever we went into the bathroom, it was overwhelming. I know these three issues are more than likely out of the hosts' control, so I hate to include them in my review, but they did affect our stay in a big way. Strengths of this Airbnb include very friendly and helpful hosts, clean/modern apartment, and central location.
