Pros: Close proximity to popular destinations including Las Ramblas and public transport. Also, there’s a tiny elevator in the building should you need it to take your luggage upstairs which is not common in little Europe flats. There are plenty of rooms for a large group as well. The balconies facing the main street are perfect for pictures. We were able to order Uber Eats at 2am and they delivered with no problem.
Cons: This property clearly sees a lot of traffic so the wear & tear is evident. The couches now have covers (probably due to stains) and the restroom fixtures are barely hanging on. The pillows need to seriously be updated because at this point they’re just lumps of fabric. Several of us has to go buy pillows after our first night. I’m a heavy sleeper so the sounds of the street didn’t bother me at all, but my group had several light sleepers and they didn’t enjoy the noise. The water heater is small so we had to stagger showers so we would all have hot water. Some of the power outlets also didn’t work.
Overall, it was an okay stay. We def overpaid. Our dates of travel were rated much higher than others. Barcelona itself was a lot of fun.
