Great apartment! Well located, metro station around the corner, within walking distance of la rambla and the old city centre (15-20 min), several deli's and supermarkets around. Apartment is spacious, has a really small but very cute balcony and comes with all the amenities you'd need (towels, closet space, clothes hangers and clothes horse, hair dryer, extensive kitchenware, etc). MInor disadvantage (we visited in july): it has air conditioning, and that helps, but it isn't the powerful device you'd see in, for instance, a hotel and it's mostly effective in the living room, and less in the bedrooms.

Montserrat is a very flexible, nice and friendly host, she responds quickly and she'll make sure you have everything you need. Although she doesn't speak that much English, she'll make the communication work!
