The location of the apartment is great. Very close to the metro and easy to get to all Barcelona’s tourist hot spots.
The apartment was very clean.
Negative items are:
1. Is on a main road, with 3 lanes of traffic outside, so it’s very noisy.
2. Kitchen is not equipped with a kettle and there is not enough knives, forks, spoons, bowls and plates, so we had to take turns to eat breakfast.... and clean the bowls and cutlery in between..
3. The bathroom tap works intermittently and you have to push the tap in a certain way to make it work. They told us about this when we arrived.
4. The bath is quite rusty. And the shower attachment has to be hand held.
5. They supply electric fans in each room. But one room, the bed is in the way of the only electric socket, and do the electric cable to the fan is not long enough.
6. They asked me to pay an extra €33 for tax when we arrived. I gave it to them. They said it was listed in the Airbnb description, but it was not.
7. After we left, the owners demanded more money (approx €160, can’t remember exactly) for cleaning curtains and said we’d broken their blinds. We hadn’t. And Airbnb agreed with us.
8. Some of the wooden floorboards in the hallway are broken and stick up. My child tripped over and hurt their foot and leg. We had to cover it up by moving one of their rugs to stop hurting anyone else.
