Javier's place was in an excellent location, so I would highly recommend if you are planning to use this as a base for your stay in Barcelona. The bedrooms were fine but the flat overall is in need of some serious maintenance. The furniture on the balcony is broken, the shower door is broken and there are some issues with the faucets. This didn't detract too much from our stay and we comfortably fit 6 people, but we spent most of our day outside so that's why it didn't bother us. If you are planning to use the patio furniture or the kitchen then it could be more of a problem. However the location was fantastic to get around the city
