We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Joan's apartment in the Gracia area of Barcelona. The location is ideal for exploring a less touristy but very dynamic part of the City. It is conveniently located to the Metro and many great restaurants and other places of interest. The apartment itself was ideal for our family of 5 (all adults), even with the challenge of sharing a single bathroom. Having access to a washer was a really nice amenity. Can't wait to return to Barcelona!
