I do not have a lot to add given the excellent reviews Pablo and his apartment already enjoy. The two bathrooms are genuinely spacious. The bedrooms are also large. The kitchen fully functional. The "accessories" from sheets and towels to small appliances and silverware are all present. Pablo is an excellent communicator who responds to questions and requests very quickly. We wrote Pablo several times prior to our arrival with various questions which he answered completely and quickly. Once we arrived we did not need to call/write him once as everything we needed was present at the apartment and everything worked well including the wi-fi whose power and range was tested extensively by our three teenage children and ourselves.

Regarding location - we were in Barcelona over the Xmas holidays and New Years so we had no need to visit the beach which is a stone's throw away. One of the highest rated hotels in Barcelona, the Arts, is virtually across the street so those on expense accounts are sharing the neighborhood with you. However, if you want to walk out your front door and have five tapas restaurants to choose from you will have to travel a bit (15 minute walk) before hitting Barcelonetta or el Barrio Gotico.

The apartment has double casement windows meant to keep sound out. Some noise still comes through when loudness from New Years' partakers for example waft over to the apartment. However, for the most part, it is a quiet neighborhood and noise will rarely be heard and if so only for a few minutes.

We are a family of five. Paco, anticipating we would be jet lagged, had already made the sofa bed for our daughter. 'The fridge has fresh milk and oranges. The counter displayed an assortment of teas and coffee. Trying to think ahead and on your behalf is in Paco's wheelhouse. You will be well served if you stay here.
