We had a great stay in Barcelona (we’re a couple with two young children). The location is excellent if you want to stay by the beach (down the block) and be in Barceloneta. We have been to Barcelona several times previously and really like Barceloneta. There are many restaurants, bars, and bakeries within a few blocks of the apartment. The apartment was very clean. However, there is not a lot of living space in the apartment, so I wouldn’t recommend the apartment if you planned to stay indoors regularly or cook at all.
