Alessio’s apartment is perfectly located for those looking to enjoy the Sagrada Familia and Eixample neighborhoods. There was minimal street noise and we didn’t even close the balcony doors every night. As far as temperature, it was spring so we were not uncomfortable. There were heaters that we did not need to turn on. There are many choices for food and lots of little super mercats for picking up groceries nearby and lots of great people watching and dog watching. We are a family of four (two teen boys) and set ourselves a budget of under $200 a night for lodging and this exactly for the bill. I loved the building the apartment was in and our two tiny balconies (one with laundry lines) were lovely little escapes. I especially loved the tub which was long and deep and had super hot water available. Great for soaking my sore body after site seeing all day. Nice cotton bedding including comfortable duvets. If you are using the sofa bed it will take up most of the living area and the person out there will have less privacy. My kids switched beds half way through to make it “fair.” We didn’t cook but used the kettle and the nespresso machine and the provided capsules (don’t buy the d’or coffee capsules available at the mercats as they were not compatible with the machine - or I am very bad at putting in capsules). One oddity about the apartment is the way the bathroom is laid out. I assume it is to fit all the plumbing, but the toilet and the bath are elevated on platforms. My family jokingly called it throne, but be careful in the dark! Alessio was solicitous and checked in daily to make sure we had everything we needed. This was a completely seamless rental, but I am certain that if we had needed assistance Alessio would have been quick to make things right. Wi-Fi was flawless.
