Was a decent, simple place to stay., not at all fancy, but clean. The room is small, as is the bed-but it does have a nice new mattress. The apartment was a bit chilly, though I had enough bedding to be warm. The bathroom and kitchen is shared with Rosa. There is an elevator and the wifi was mostly reliable. The neighborhood had a lot to offer in restaurants and an organic food store nearby, as well as a large new looking pool and health club facility on the block. Not as pretty as the gothic section and Bonn, but decent and pretty accessible to the pier and Las Ramblas down the Diagonal
Rosa was kind and checked in frequently to ensure my comfort and needs were met. Our communication was limited by our language barrier-she speaks no english, and I a little spanish- so did not get to know her well. She does smoke in the apartment, so the smell might be an issue for some.
