The location of Elena’s apartment is great, the park across the road is beautiful and a must see for travellers. It was a 15 minute walk to the beach and even shorter to the old city area full of bars and backstreet restaurants. The room was clean and the best bit was a full electric shutter that kept the room dark which was helpful considering how long the days are during the summer. Elena was full of tips and answered any questions we had about transport and places to see. Overall was a great stay in Barcelona and we will definitely be back.
