The location of the apartment is brilliant.. close enough to walk or cycle to all everything we wanted to see, but far enough away from the touristy areas. It was very clean and well kept, and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved trying the bars on the Blai which intersects with the street. Lots of great pinchos, and the stairs up to the apartment helped to burn off the calories! The air conditioning was very welcome in the July heat, too. Can't wait to come back to Barcelona. Thanks
