The place is very clean and quiet . Oriol was a great host: He greeted us and helped to find all places in Barcelona that we intended to visit. He even called taxi to airport for us. The building is secure, has an elevator and is located 5 mins walk from the magnificent park. Metro is less than 10 mins walk and by metro you can get to any place in Barcelona ( public transportation is very good so you do not need a car). There are numerous restaurants in the area and supermarket in case if you prefer to cook. Gothic quarter is 15 mins walk. The appartment is close to everything you may need. Great place to stay when you visit the city!
