Rosa’s apartment was a great place in the heart of the city. Her mom greeted us with the key, and was lovely. Communication with Rosa was easy, though we never actually met her. As another reviewer mentioned though, this is probably not the place for you if you are a light sleeper. Being in the middle of the city, some outside and car noise is expected, but my girlfriend and I were unable to sleep the first night because of additional noise like glass bottles breaking outside (due to some kind of nearby recycling plant) and drunk people singing/screaming most of the night on the street. Also, as another reviewer mentioned, the curtains are hung oddly and don’t cover all the windows, letting in lots of light in the morning. The bed is on the hard side. The apartment is super walkable to all of Barcelona’s sites and is a good spot if you are looking to stay central if the above are non issues for you. Of note: There is no availability to hold your bags beyond check out time.
