If you like to stay outside of the touristy hustle in the city centre, this pleasant apartment is perfect. We had a wonderful time it this very charming neighbourhood of Barcelona. The apartment is well equipped, public transport is nearby and sights such as Sant Pau and Sagrada Familia are in walking distance. There are lots of shops, several supermarkets, cafés and the local market in the little pedestrian street. This is very convenient even though it also means quite a bit of noise (not from traffic but people’s voices). The only impairment of the apartment was the proximity of both bathroom and toilet to the kitchen/dining room, with no separate ventilation. We had to avoid using both areas at the same time because of the smell.
We didn’t meet Goldy but her mother Gemma showed us everything in great detail. She later even sent us very kindly some swim clothes and an iPod which we had accidentally left behind. For that I was extremely grateful! We would certainly come back.
