We had a great stay here. The host was very warm and welcoming and really made us feel at home. The location is perfect, a short walk from Sagrada Familia and the bus station. There is a metro stop close by that goes direct to the train station as well. Great bakeries nearby, and several supermarkets to choose from. We prepared several meals for ourselves to save some money. The apartment is comfortable, though the traffic can be noisy during the day (this is typical for all of Barcelona though as it is a very busy city). At night it was fine and we had no trouble sleeping.
