Our apartment was clean, nicely furnished and very well located for using the Metro - its a 4 minute walk to Urquinaona station - which is a great way to get around Barcelona using the T10 tickets which are good value for money. The air conditioning is extremely effective and very welcome after a day's sightseeing. Check in was very straightforward and although we couldn't have a late check out on the day of our departure because the apartment needed to be cleaned in time for the next set of arrivals, the staff at the Aspasios office just down the road kindly let us leave our luggage with them until we are ready to go to the airport. They also booked the cab for us for the airport. Would happily use their accommodation and services again.
