Good communication before and at arrival. Spacious, well equipped flat in a very good area, grocery stores, bakeries, restaurants and bus/subway stations right in front. Also, in the middle of the very nice El Raval and Poble Sec quarters. Of course, you can hear the Paraŀlel street from the living room and sometimes the neighbors, but that's normal in Barcelona, I think and never was a problem for us. The TV is a big flat screen now as opposed to the pictures (we didn't use it, though). I can really recommend the flat for up to four people.
