You are not in the hectic hub of Barcelona activity, which is a bonus to me. This is more of a neighborhood place, with everything you need within a block: bakery, meat and cheese market, a place to grab a beer. The apartment is comfortable! We had the space we needed, and there is a well equipped kitchen, clean and modern bathroom, cozy living space, and comfortable beds. Thank goodness for the air conditioner and the fans because it was WARM while we visited in early September. Everything you want to explore is accessible by metro or walking. I recommend this place.
