This apartment has some very good aspects, as described in other reviews, but one major problem that could be a deal-breaker for some travelers. There is no effective AC for the apartment and the master bedroom/bath has few shades and no way to open the windows. On sunny days in the summer months, this means a temperature of 32C (90F) regardless whether the AC thermostat is on or off (I'm a scientist, I measured). This may not be a problem for some, but it forced my wife and I to leave the master bedroom and "camp out" on the patio on sofa cushions. With ear plugs, a mask and a sense of adventure, it's now a quirky memory of our time in Barcelona. The other two bedrooms were warm but tolerable because the windows open. The broken jacuzzi tub and shades in the living room are minor quibbles. A plugged drain in the master bath (resulting in a small flood) was fixed quickly. On the plus side, the apartment was clean, the manager and cleaners were quick to reply to emails/texts, the location is great (metro and nice bus to the airport), the building entrance is lovely and the elevator is charming but finicky (like some of my elderly relatives). The apartment overall is only OK in terms of value and comfort, which is a shame because it could be all-around great given more attention to maintenance and effective AC for the summer months.
