The apartment is really well located. There are countless bars and restaurants in the neighborhood. There are 2 metro stations within 5 min of walking and if you go by foot it takes about 20 min to the centre, so it is perfectly connected. The communication with the host was very smooth, they were always available and very nice. Some of the bad sides of the apartment - the couch and the walls are really dirty and the apartment is very dark. But overall I would recommend it to anybody visiting Barcelona as a tourist.
