Great Location, But Some Drawbacks to Consider.
We enjoyed the charming location of this apartment in Barcelona—centrally located less than 5 minutes walk from the Diagonal metro station, with plenty of great local restaurants and shops nearby. The neighborhood was lively and offered a genuine taste of local life.However, there are some important aspects to consider. While the apartment has charm and potential, it could use some a fresh coat pf paintand some TLC. It was definitely not as clean as we expected. The bathroom has areas where the sheetrock tape is coming off and peeling.the baseboards and the light switches were dingy and in need of heavy dusting.We experienced a strong sewer smell at times. We also experienced a lingering sulfur odor, likely due to the water heater's location in the bathroom with limited ventilation. The balcony opens up to the interior court of the block, not the street and the windows have a 2 way mechanism so it was easy to keep them open to air out the apartment. Below the apartment is a great restaurant (Enriquetta) and the staff takes their breaks directly under the balcony so there can be some noise at night.On a positive note, the management team was responsive and arranged for a maintenance person to fix a leaking sink during our stay, which we appreciated. The bedrooms are tiny but cosy, and the mattress in the double room was quite hard, but overall, the location and charm of the apartment made it a unique experience.
