Going in April ... been there loads of times before.
Mugging talk is a bit over-exaggerated I think. Certainly barre gotic/ramblas are dodgy at night but apart from that its fine. I know plenty of people that have been "done" there but it's always pickpocketing/non-violent (which doesn't make it okay obviously) and always in the barre gotic. It's a great city ... one of my favourites.
One place that most people don't go to is the Joan Miro museum which is up on a hill. It's seriously fantastic. Go.
Edit: I should I suppose add that a year or two ago I spent 10 minutes scoffing at a work colleague who told me to watch myself in Paris as there's loads of muggings. I then went to Paris and got mugged.
