This is an amazing classic apartment. It is right near the university and has good transit connections around the city. Maria provides some good tips on transportation, like buying a book of 10 tickets. The place is large spacious, well preserved and updated and it has many, many small personal and artistic touches. Maria oversaw the development of this place and her love of good design shows. Bravo. She also had many excellent suggestions for things to do in the city, where to eat, etc.
Even in early November we were able to use the spacious outdoor balcony a couple of times. This place probably had more dishes and kitchenware than our home....it would be an amazing place to entertain friends when visiting the city. Alas, we do not have friends or relatives in Barcelona.
We highly recommend this place.
