Great apartment, spacious and well located to La Sagrada familia. Everything else is a quick cabify/uber (2 km) or metro away (like the beach, gothic quarter, arc of triumf, etc). Safe area and all the amenities necessary were available in the apt. My family and I stayed 5 days there and my dad was not planning on joining everything so the fact that the tv did not work well and when it did, only one channel was available was a bummer for him. Another suggestion is to have a self check in option available- the personal touch of meeting your host is great but not conducive if you are road tripping or have trouble looking for parking since you have to make an appt with the host for the approximate time you will arrive. If Barcelona is your first stop, then this type of check in should not be a problem.
