Franz's apartment is a little paradise nicely tucked in close proximity to the happening places of Barcelona. It is a very cosy and compact 1 Bed apartment with more than basic amenities you would need during your trip.

Bathroom is good size with a separate shower area, no bath. Basic toiletries are there but suggest to carry you own kit as this is not a hotel. However Franz has made sure there is a first aid kit which came in handy for us and also a hair dryer.

The bedroom is small with a single bed which is extended to make it a double. However you wont want to spend much time here coz the highlight of the apartment in its living area - bright, lively and beautiful overlooking the terrace deck. It has a sofa bed, dining area, tv and dvd player. We spent 2 nights out of our 3 in the living area gazing at the sky and stars.

As you step out of the living area on to the terrace, it turns into a total bliss at evenings, its the best part of the apartment, provided splendid view of the city, amazing colors of the sky. This is unmatched even in the best hotels as you don't get this privacy with luxury, there are easy chairs, couch and table on the terrace as well. Familia Sagrada is right infront of you on the terrace.

The apartment also has a small and tight kitchen area which has microwave, hob, fridge, sink and basic cooking vessles and enough plates and cutlery. It is quite tight so u can best manage breakfast, tea coffee and some snacks.

Franz has also kept nescafe dolce coffee maker and provides you a few shots complimentary along with a Cava bottle as you arrive. Basic seasoning, salt, pepper, sugar, oil etc are also available.

There's a small grocery store right outside the building and a Lidl just 50 meters from the apartment.

Franz is very helpful to provide a map with all marking of places where to go and what to do and any local information you need for your trip. He's also available on whatsapp if you need any information.

Apartment is around 5-10 min walk from Marina metro station on red line and Bogotel metro station on yellow line. Zoo is a 5 min walk. Its a very nice location to reach any of the attractions or happening areas of Barcelona. Port Olimpics is less than a mile and can be reached on foot as well.

Reaching the apartment from the airport by train can be a challenge asdepend on Train rather than Metro, frequency is low. I would suggest to take the aerobus till Plaza Catalunya from the airport, whichever terminal you land at and from Plaza Catalunya take a taxi and it should be under 10 Euro for the taxi.

Franz also arranges a local taxi guy and it cost us 38 Euro for Terminal 2 on our way back.
