Good thing about this apartment is location. Most of attractions are walkable within 20 mins such as old town, La Rambla, Casa Batillo, Casa Mila, etc. It is closed to supermarket and restaurants.
The host provided good communication at first. He provided all necessary info to go to apartment from airport and also car rental info before our trip. When we arrived, he helped us to bring all luggages to the apartment. He put fresh flowers for decoration. However, sometimes he was not responsive and not even responded to my messages.
The apartment itself is on 2nd floor. So you will hear traffic and people talk on the street. If you are light sleeper, you need to consider. Also, there are restaurants downstairs. We could hear loud music and people talk (on Friday and Sat night all the way past midnight). Apartment has most of stuffs you need. It is well renovated and decorated. However, I do feel it is little bit worn out such as bathroom.
