Absolutely nothing. It was like holidaying in hell.
We booked home boat and whilst we were on our way, received a message saying there was a problem with home boat and they were putting us on 'a bigger boat'. The bigger boat was an absolute wreck. Every window let in rain so all the beds were wet, the kitchen facilities were a microwave - that was being used to hide rotting wood and a sink down the steps with no plug. We spent 3 nights trying to mop up leaks so that we weren't underwater. We contacted our contact person and he was a teenager who turned up to the boat with 2 small bin bags and a roll of tape. To secure every window. He disappeared when my partner asked what his plan was in torrential rain with a roll of tape. He got onto his phone then disappeared without a word. About 6cm of water - 2 hours in standard terms - later, two men came with a huge roll of plastic and covered the roof of the lower deck with it. It did keep the living area dry but didn't stop the rain pouring through the ceiling of the upper deck. We were supposed to have free WiFi but both had to purchase data bundles to keep our phones in use. It was honestly absolutely disgusting. We had to fork out for laundry services as one of the windows were directly above where we were storing our cases so everything we owned was soaking wet. We were also told that if anybody asked who we were to tell them we were friends of Patricia. What had looked like a lovely little adventure turned into an absolutely horrific nightmare.

The location and sitting on the boat for the one evening we stayed... good air conditioning. Owner was pleasant over the phone to my girlfriend whilst asking not to use toilet paper. 2022!
Owner asked us to not flush any toilet paper and put it in a bin, how hygienic is that... no hot water, uncomfortable bed, electric wires taped up, toothpaste on the glasses, rusty camping stove, squeeky springs kept me awake all night from other boats next door. Insect bites and i never get them. Rubbish WiFi and not clean apart from that was ok. I stayed on boats a lot and this is the worst by far and only one i have ever left a poor review for. I am the renters boyfriend. Not the renter!

Renato was incredibly helpful and responsive, any time something came up he was quick to respond and send someone out. The location is just a few minute walk to the beach and a nearby bus made it super easy to travel to Barcelona when we wanted to.
There is even a small food truck near the bathroom facilities where we got coffee and churros every day.
On our first day we discovered ants on the boat which were biting us and while we slept part of the covering above the bed came down. We wrote Renato in the morning and he sent someone out to take care of everything but we had to wait a few hours for them to arrive. Wifi is provided but it's so slow that it is mostly unusable however you can get free wifi from the marina that is marginally faster.
Mosquitos were very present but expected since we're on the water and it took some time to figure out how to deal with them.

The beautiful location of Badalona marina was lovely to wake up to every morning. We enjoyed each sunrise and sunset. The marina itself is nice to walk around and the beach is only a couple minutes away. The gently rocking of the boat and the powerful air -con unit meant my partner and I had great sleep. He is 6ft and found the bed big enough. There is a shop very close and plenty of good restaurants to visit without having to venture into Barcelona itself. There is a little kitchenette with fridge, small freezer, microwave and sink. There is also a hob but we never used this. There is indoor and outdoor seating and also a toilet on the boat which we only used during the night as with the boat comes with access to a toilet and shower block with individual rooms. These were kept very clean. There was a TV and plenty space to charge phones. There was also some thoughtful items on the boat which came in handy such as a beach blanket and umbrella. We picked up the key from a lockbox and spoke with Renato on the phone. He was very helpful and made sure we had all the information we needed. He also sent videos on WhatsApp showing how to open the windows, where the showers are etc. I would thoroughly recommend staying here. It was lovely after a busy day in the bustling Barcelona to come back and listen to nothing but the sea breeze and waves. We could of just sat and watched the boats coming in and out of the marina all day. We loved it. It's not a luxury hotel room but if you're looking for something a bit different in a great location, stay here! You'll have a far more memorable time 💗

Badalona is amazing 🤩 I'm in love with the beach.
It was a different experience staying on a boat.
I recommend this place.
The only thing was the water, it needs to be fixed.
