The apartment is situated in a great neighborhood, with multiple grocery stores and the Sant Antoni market just around the corner. Very close to the old town but quieter. The apartment was very comfortable but the common area was a bit smaller than expected based on the pictures. This was not a problem because the terrace is quite large and our weather was fabulous. If the weather was not cooperative 6 guests might find it a bit cramped at times. The quick daily housecleaning was a nice touch. We would definitely stay here again if we were to return to Barcelona.
