This apartment is full of light and the tall ceilings and huge windows make it feel very spacious. Tile floors and stained glass near the door give it a cozy, traditional feel while the place is equipped with most modern conveniences, including an elevator. The full sized bed was comfortable, although it only had a comforter/duvet instead of sheets and a blanket. The kitchen had all the equipment needed to prepare meals, including a gas stove, large fridge, microwave, toaster, and lots of pans. Be aware that supermarkets are closed on Sundays but there are lots of small markets around the neighborhood, including a rather expensive but very convenient one right next door. The shower was a bit awkard because the shower head pulls out from the side of the bath and you have to hold it while showering. A simple hook on the wall to hold it in place would be very helpful. The apartment is very conveniently located next to a wide variety of transportation options - metro, train, and airport bus are all within easy walking distance. There are several pretty, tree-lined streets nearby that are great for strolling around admiring the architecture and there was always something interesting going on at the beautiful park across the street. We saw an impromptu dance class, pick-up soccer, a game that involved throwing balls cut in half at wooden stakes, dogs frolicking in the fenced off-leash area, and hockey being played. This was a great experience to see what it was like to live like locals in a neighborhood very close to big attractions but still quiet and it felt safe. A neighbor's dog barked a lot during the day but not at night. Pepe was waiting for us at the arranged time and showed us everything we needed to know about the apartment. He also gave us very useful tips, including the suggestion to visit the Born Cultural Center, which we had passed by on an earlier stay in Barcelona but had no idea how fascinating it was inside, where you can walk around unearthed ruins from various times in the city's past and learn about how markets worked over the years. Well worth a visit!
