Fabienne's place is a basic space that was furnished top to bottom with IKEA. The beds are very comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. The stairs were described well. Be ready to climb. The neighborhood is not very good. We did not feel safe walking home after dark. after taking the bus tour we learned where the much better neighborhoods are. I would describe this as sketchy. A cab at the beach refused to take us home. It is far from the beach and would be an okay walk to LasRamblas if it felt safe. Bring Nespresso pods as there is only a few or get coffee at the cute place on the corner.
