Leslie's apartment is spacious and contains many amenities. The large washer and dryer and full kitchen were wonderful. Also the Condis and Organic supermarkets are close and fully stocked. Nearby are at least two great bakeries and the beach is about 5 minutes away. Many of the attractions we saw were far so we took taxis. Sagrada Familia is a 30 minute walk, which we did coming back. There are several buses nearby. We felt safe in the neighborhood. And we would consider staying again at Leslie's beautiful home.
