Really great place. Spacious and well organized as a permanent airbnb. Much better value than a hotel and better quality. Air con was good and appreciated as it was still pretty warm even in October (thankfully!).
A chilled 10 minute walk to El Born for local bars and restaurants... but the area itself is quiet so you get a nice deep nights sleep away from the tourists. We cabbed everywhere for like 6-7 euros since it's so well located and near the major roundabout.
One thing was we arrived like an hour earlier than the agreed time as they estimate time to collect bags in the airport and slow buses etc. If you are coming with a carry on and getting a cab into town, just make sure to double check the check-in time and adjust it if you thing its too generous! many thanks for the flat
