Great apartment in a very good area of Barcelona. Close to the beach, the Rambla of Poblenou, etc. It's not really walkable to the old town, but a 7-10 euro taxi gets you there without any issues.
Pros:
- Good view of the beach and partial sunsets.
- Kitchen has everything you need in terms of pots, pans, etc. (there was no dishwashing detergent, but tablets for the dishwasher were provided).
- Xavier is very responsive during work hours.
- The maintenance staff is friendly - our microwave stopped working and they replaced it in <30 minutes.
Cons:
- The lock on our door stopped working at midnight and we had to contact the emergency number a few times to get the maintenance person to come let us in. The next day they reprogrammed the lock and we didn't have any other issues.
