It is an easy walk to Sagrada Familia, Casa Mila/La Pedera, Placa de Catalunya, and the Block of Discord. The apartment is within a block of the Girona Metro station on the L4 line. Despite being on the corner of a large busy street it is not too loud on the terrace and inside is very quiet. We were here during the Festival of Saint John which involves a lot of fireworks and still the apartment was quiet enough for sleep. There is no lift and it is 80 steps up a narrow staircase but it is worth it for the roof-top terrace. We did a little bit of cooking. There is a large supermarket around the corner and a similar distance in the other direction there was a bakery and a deli if we didn’t want to cook or go out for meals. Wifi was good.
