Joan kept in touch after we booked the apartment and ensured we had no problems on arrival. A clean modern apartment with all facilities needed for a short/medium length stay. Very secure with street access and the lift only available via key entry. Ideally located for the Sagrada Familia which is within easy walking distance (5 minutes). The local Metro station with easy links to the whole city is less than 5 mins walk. The Ramblas and waterfront are within walking distance, but a bit further (around 25 minute walk). Overall we had a very good experience with a nice flat in a good location.
