Location was the greatest thing of this apartment. Close to everything...I mean it. You can walk to Sagrada Familia, Gracia neighborhood, Modernist walks and homes, Park Guell. You can even walk to the Old Town if you are up to it. If not, subway is only 5 min walk away. The apartment is right around the corner from a cute pedestrian street with cafes and shops. Very warm for winter staying. A few negative notes that may matter for people staying more then a few days. Many things in the house need touch up and fixing: Curtains in the kitchen, oven doesn't work, kitchen utensils are a bit worn out, Flush toilets make a terrible noise in both bathrooms. We would have enjoyed extra towels for each couple. Particularly if you are there for more then a couple of days. If this gets addressed this would be the perfect place for your stay in Barcelona.
