This apartment is in the last floor of the building (6 stories) and it is very spacious for it to be in Barcelona also has lots of natural lighting which is "ahem"...also a rarity sometimes. This has been my 5th time staying in Bcn and let me tell you if you're from Texas prepare to be claustrophobic with housing here in Bcn LOL
This is why I highly recommend Andre's place. It's a bit outdated and very basic but it balancea out because of 1) The size 2) The fact that you have no upstairs neighbors 3) the lighting so it doesn't feel like a cave. Also the LOCATION is awesome. You're like 2 to 3 blocks from the famous Sagrada Familia church and you're 1 large block away from Westfield mall which has Starbucks and many restaurants as well as a large grocery store. You truly have everything you need at an arms reach yet you're far away (enough) from the Rambla and Barrio Gotico which to be honest I don't recommend staying especially if you have kids. It's a hub for pick pocketers and thieves and not safe to walk at night vs Andre's place is in a safe neighborhood and if you're a solo woman traveler or have kids will appreciate. Bcn is very small I walked all the way to Barrio Gótico from this apartment and enjoyed the stroll as there is so much to see but if you prefer transportation you have a metro (subway) 5 min away or just use Cabify or Freenow (Uber version in Spain) as they're very cheap compared to the states. Overall you'll really enjoy staying here also Andre's himself is a sweetheart and always a fast responder.
