The house is nice and clean in a residential area and it's closed to the town, only takes 10 - 15 taxi to Catalunya plaza. the department store, el corte ingles is just right at the corner, the supermarket on B1 you may find everything you need. You won't be worried about being caught by a thief at night when you walk alone in this area. The most important is, I really have to highlight this for 3000 times that Rosaura is a fantastic host, we bugged her like 24hours per day, but she's always response my call and message quickly. She helped us booked the restaurants, we bugged her when we cannot find the control of heater, she's always patient and willing to help us. We really appreciate and feel like we make a very good choice staying at Rosaura's house. If you plan to visit Barcelona and consider to have a very special and warmest lodging experience, stay at Rosaura's house will be a very wisdom decision.
