This is a beautiful, spacious, modern, and comfortable apartment! We stayed in Barcelona for 4 nights and it was nice to have the extra space for all of us (we were a family of 5). We purposely wanted to stay a bit off the center and this is perfect location is you want to be in a quiet area of town, but close enough that you can easily get to the center. You are about 5 min walk to the Verdaguer Metro station and about 15 minute walk to Passeig de Gracia. It is also located very close to Sagrada Familia and we were able to take walks at night to enjoy the night view. You'll also find plenty of small supermarkets and nice restaurants around (we found a very nice Vietnamese just 2-3 blocks away). Maria Fernanda was a great host, very quick to respond, she gave us good tips about Barcelona. We had a problem with one of the showers and she sent someone to fix that right away! This is a great apartment to call "home" when you are in Barcelona, highly recommend it!
