Overall, our experience was positive.
The apartment is in a decent location, you can be at any of the main tourist attractions within a reasonable time by either public transport or taxi. There are plenty of bars, shops and restaurants in close proximity without it being too noisy.
The apartment was spacious enough for 6 adults to sleep and live in relative comfort. There was, however, only Air Con in one room and the fans provided did not work. The bathroom and kitchen facilities were satisfactory.
The most significant feature of the apartment is the rooftop terrace which provides a fantastic view of the city. This, combined with the very reasonable price we paid to stay for the weekend, are the main reasons why I would recommend this apartment
The only issues we had were with checking in and checking out. When checking in we were admitted to the apartment to find the place uncleaned from the previous guests. The cleaner was present but she was looking after two infants and seemed surprised by our presence which suggested she had not long arrived. We were asked to leave our bags and return 3 hours later. We agreed to do this out of courtesy but were disappointed not to find the apartment clean as we expected. We returned later that afternoon to discover the apartment cleaned and tidied to our satisfaction. The stated checkout time was 12pm on the day we left, but the cleaner arrived at 10:50 am and entered the apartment using her own key without knocking. I was the only tenant awake and none of us had showered or packed as we had been lead to believe we had until 12 to leave. The cleaner told us we had ten minutes to exit, but we declined to accept this inconvenience at such short notice. The agent acting on behalf of the host then arrived with the next group of guests and then admitted to them to the apartment while we were still showering and dressing. We found this to be an invasion of privacy, disrespectful and a clear lack of organisation on the part of those in charge of running the apartment. Despite this, the agent was apologetic for the inconvenience and the cleaner was pleasant despite having to work amidst such interruptions and miscommunication. We left at 12 without any further problems. I would like to reiterate that overall, the apartment met our needs and we would recommend staying here to anyone visiting Barcelona, despite the aforementioned issues
