The views from this apartment are absolutely incredible! You could just sit on the balcony and stare at the Sagrada Familia all day long without ever going out to explore the city and still feel like you got your money's worth.
The location is ideal. It's right across from Metro and there are always cabs driving by, so you'll have no trouble getting around the city at all or finding a cab to the airport when it's time to head home. There are convenience stores, cafes, restaurants, pharmacies and banks all just steps from the building.
The couple who were the point of contact during the trip were very kind and helpful. Wonderful people. I travel solo to Barcelona several times a year and normally stay with friends or family, but decided to try this flat as I was traveling with a friend this past trip. I'm glad I did, and will definitely consider staying here again. I miss hearing the bells of the basilica sing El rossinyol and other Catalan songs. I felt very much at home here. Thanks so much for everything!
