Didn't match up to the listing. A lot of the fixtures and fittings are broken or in poor condition, including a broken light switch, a plug socket hanging off the wall, which is dangerous. Some window shutters didn't work. The shower cubicle is mouldy and full of thick limescale and the vanity unit is falling apart. The toilet was also constantly running which was noisy and wasting a lot of water, which is terrible given the drought in Barcelona.
The walls had dirt marks and scuffs all over them.
The flat hadn't been cleaned properly for a long time as there was dust and cobwebs everywhere and in the kitchen we found a stale half-eaten baguette in one of the cupboards. It seemed like all that had been done was a change of bedding
The dishwasher was not working while we stayed here. There was no washing up liquid provided either. We contacted the host about this but didn't receive a response. The kitchen is also quite poorly equipped with no chopping knife, chopping board, wooden spoons or spatula etc. There is only one very large saucepan and two frying pans. The lack of equipment makes it hard to prepare even a basic meal such as sandwiches, which partly defeats the purpose of staying in a flat.
On the plus side the flat is quite spacious and in a good location with bus stops very close by and the Metro station a ten minute walk away, although there is a lot of traffic noise
In conclusion the property needs a significant amount of work doing to bring it up to standard.
