Apartment Eixample Esquerre Arago Rocafort by Interhome

Very good location. Nearby big supermarket and many small shops, bakery. All tourist attractions within 30 minutes walk. Aparment is in a good condition, everything which needed was there (hair dryer, toster, coffee machine, utensils).

Bedrooms have windows facing the staircase or wall, so it is dark there all the time and no sunlight at all. The biggest disadvantage was communication.... I was arriving late, so I asked my friend who lives in Barcelona to pick up the keys in time described in the offer. After we agreed on that with hosts, person from the staff started to persuade my friend (not me, who did the booking) to do night check in (that costs additionally 50e). It created misunderstood which felt pushy into adding additional costs. I also didn't like the fact that one person was communicating with me in Spanish, even though I was answering that I don't undestand this language.

The flat is fully equipped and clean.

The only minus is audibility,the noise from the street and the neighbors.

The location.

Kitchen cupboards and utensils were extremely dirty. We had to wash it all before "starting our holidays". We were surprised that there was a sponge for the dishes but no dishwasher. The entrance door to the apartment has a hole covered with a piece of cardboard that would obviously fall every time we'd close the door. This means that any neighbors can see inside the house. There's an uncomfortable amount of paintings stored on plastic bags on the main wardrobe. The main room has no windows and the small room has only 1 window to the building stairs, It can feel a bit claustrophobic.
