This apartment was a great home-away-from-home for our 10 day stay. The host was very communicative and graciously arranged for us to leave our luggage in the room before it was ready due to a very early flight arrival. The neighborhood is seemingly not well-known but is conveniently located and very charming. We found lots of good food and drink (and pretty streets and buildings) close to the apartment, and sites such as the Sagrada Familia and the Gothic Quarter were about 30 minutes by Metro. Keep in mind it is a cozy European apartment on a busy street. We personally loved that, so if that sounds good then this is a great place.
