As described, the apartment location was great. In a safe, vibrant area and when the windows were open you could hear the sounds and activity of the city, however, when the windows were closed, all the noise was shut out. Overall, the apartment had a clean and had modern feel. Marta was proactive and responsive. Areas of improvement: there were a few items that were not provided when we checked in: paper towels, hand and shower soap. Additionally, although the address was provided, the map in the app pinpoints the location about .25 miles away which we found out the hard way when our cab dropped us off. Marta did try to assist when we called. Overall, I would recommend staying at this location if you want to really enjoy the Gothic area of Barcelona.
