We stayed at Oriol's apartment for five days and loved it as it was so central and the metro very easy to use. He gave us a number of recommendations for restaurants and we visited all of them and the food was great.
Our taxi to the airport cost us €47 and the trip took less than 30minutes maximum which was in our opinion very expensive, while in Paris we were in a taxi for an hour and cost €35.
I will definitely recommend Oriol's apartment to all our friends.
