So, the place is clean but does show signs of wear throughout. It could use a little more maintenance outside of a cleaning job and maybe some updates. The front desk and hallways look a bit like an old hospital or school. The apartment is quite a large space but the beds are more like cots and only a few inches thick. The AC has been installed in the same window for the balcony meaning the small balcony can only be enjoyed when the AC is off since you’d be subject to warm exhaust air if you were sitting on one of the chairs outside. The apartment is run by a company so the emails sent to the host aren’t being relayed to the people answering the phone which can get frustrating. The worst part for me was that the key must be picked up from a location 20 minutes away by taxi and then brought back to the apartment. I didn’t know this until AFTER I arrived at the apartment, I have since asked the host to update the listing to include this information. Overall I wouldn’t book again, there are other nicer rentals in Barcelona.
