Family lodging in Barcelona

Our family of 5 - two adults, 3 teens - will be in Barcelona for 3-4 nights in January 2027. I am familiar with the Airbnb vs. hotel conversation but the apartment/airbnb option appears much more affordable. Are there apartments or family suites that are comparable to an airbnb or vrbo in size & price that don't have the same negative impact on the local economy and housing?

We really enjoyed the Hotel Nouvel, which is quite affordable - the biggest rooms they have are triples, so you could get two rooms. Location is excellent and it's a lovely old building.
