The apartment location is excellent: an easy walk to the historic Gothic quarter, markets on La Rambla, shopping on Passeig de Gràcia, but on a street that doesn’t feel inundated with tourists and gives a bit more “authentic” feel for the city. There is also a convenience shop located right next to the apartment which came in handy for getting supplies before and after our treks through the city. Gerard was a thoughtful and attentive host and we appreciated the many local suggestions he provided. Couldn’t have asked for a better host and apartment. Highly recommend this property!
