This is a very interesting house but the way it is curated and run is so very poor. It really is just a money making enterprise that herds as many people through as possible.
The staff are not so pleasant - borderline rude.
The extras you need to pay for to see the whole house are excessive. The base enterance price is too much. The visual guide is so poorly done a uni student would do far better - it was basically useless.
The revolving display in the cellar could have been good but was so inept and basic that it set the tone for how this organisation sees its visitors - nothing more than walking wallets.
The ludicrous prices in the shop, high entrance prices and all the other add-ons a tourist will feel they sould get in order to gain the best experience smack of an organisation that cares little for its product and only if its profit - which must be substantial.
The queues to get in. The total lack of any real and interesting information. The disinterest of the staff.
Not really worth visiting. Enjoy the facade and visit other much less crowded houses.

This is a stunning building, use of colour, light and form wherever you gaze. Unfortunately the audio guide doesn't tell you about the history of the building, or Gaudi, the designer, it just draws your attention to different aspects of the house and repeats how Gaudi was influenced by nature. The plastic flowers on the rooftop were a travesty, Gaudi would turn in his grave to see the artificial plastic bougainvillea. What a shame when every other aspect of the apartment is so exquisite and the repairs to Mosaics are being done with such care and diligence
