This apartment is just what we were looking for as it represented Spanish architecture with brick walls, rounded stone ceilings and old wooden doors. With its old world charm it still had modern appliances including a small but nice kitchen (with stove/oven, dishwasher, microwave and washer/dryer). The bathroom also was very clean an updated. The apartment has two bedrooms and a family/dining room. Very spacious. Although on the fourth floor (there is a lift) on a busy street (cars) you could not hear noise with air conditioner in family room and ceiling fans in each bedroom. There is a market a block away and Sagrada Familia about 4 blocks away. On Avenue de Gaudi there are many quaint restaurants and shops. The metro is also close at 4 blocks away. We highly recommend this apartment for those folks wanting to stay in this part of Barcelona and our hosts were excellent! We really had a great time!
