Bruno was a great host! He was very easy to communicate with, had a lovely friend meet us right on time for our late check in, and the apartment was beautifully well maintained, modern, had all the amenities you typically need, and was spotlessly clean. It’s also very central and in a great neighborhood with great restaurants and the metro is very close in case you want to venture outside Barcelona proper. His recommendations for places to eat and things to see were spot on and fantastic.
The only issues we had (and they were by no means because of Bruno or the apartment itself) were that starting around 0800 every week day, there is currently nearby construction with jackhammers and also the apartment itself is being updated, so the workers downstairs play music loud enough to hear from the other end of the apartment. The neighbors upstairs also get up for work around this time and the walls are thin so you can easily hear them briefly walking about. That said, it is very quiet in the afternoons and evenings, so there is no issue with noise when you’re trying to get to sleep. This morning noise may actually be a good thing because it forces you up and go explore! Also, the Wi-Fi is slow at times and needed resetting a few times a day, but it was definitely manageable and not a huge deal. I think once the workers outside the apartment are done, this is the PERFECT place to stay. Thanks Bruno!
