A wonderful apartment with a perfect "all day sun" terrace, in the very best part of the old town (if you like good restaurants, bars, sightseeing etc.). Also, the location is perfectly placed between downtown Barcelona and the more relaxed Barceloneta and beach areas - all at walking distance. From the nearby Jaume metro station you can quickly get to anywhere in Barcelona. Very good and timely service was provided by the nice host. The only issue that may arise is if you have compromised walking ability/stamina, since the apartment is accessed through a narrow spiral staircase with high/tall steps (six floors up), and the terrace access also requires some basic ladder climbing skills. To us this was no problem however, since we enjoy a bit of extra exercise. Definitely worth the money!
