This is a clean, tidy apartment that has a traditional look. It’s in a great part of the city with access to all that Barcelona has to offer. The gothic quarter is just a short walk away and there is easy access to the metro.
The place was very clean and the amenities were good. Shower and bathroom were excellent, as was the kitchen.
There is one double bedroom and two small rooms with single beds. I was staying with two other adults - we all felt that the mattresses were very soft and too light. Young children probably wouldn’t notice so much, but as adults we were a little uncomfortable. We could feel the springs in the mattresses.
Also it was a little cold at night (stayed in late January). Some thinker duvets and extra blankets might have been useful. I am sure the host would have provided these if we had asked.
There was air conditioning with heat located in the double room and in the living area.
One thing to note - we didn’t use it because we were on a weekend break, but the cooker / oven is set to only use the lowest heat setting. We couldn’t understand why. If we were cooking I think we would have been disappointed with this.
Overall though it is a lovey apartment and just a few improvements would make it even better. It would probably suit a family with young children given my earlier comments about the bed / mattresses.
