The apartment is in a great area, just in the middle of everything. 2 Metro stations from Ramblas, 1 metro station from Pl. Espanya, 5 metro stations from Camp Nou stadium etc. You have to walk for like 3-5 mins to "Poble Sec" metro station on Av. de Paral-lel.
The check in was really smoth. Even if Eli or Agus were not able to be there for our check in, they send me a note 3 days earlier saying that Noel, a friend of theirs will be there to meet us at the specified hour.
Nice view from the apartment balcony. It really makes you feel like home.
Thanks!
