The location of this apartment is amazing, it would be hard to stay anywhere else in Barcelona! We had a large group and this apartment was a great, spacious landing spot for all of us, right next to the metro and the hop on/off bus, good for our group who had come from New Zealand. We appreciated the elevator for my mother (the birthday girl) who has a bad hip, and that the building was secure for it's location. The interior was very stylish and very clean, which we appreciated. A small balcony at the front allowed an amazing view of the heart of the city, along with beautiful Gaudi buildings, of course. If you have breakfast at your home while traveling like kiwis do, you may need to plan to go and find butter, jam etc, but there are a few small grocers where you can do this within a couple of blocks, or if you are lucky enough to be able to drive here, just know to bring it with you. There is also a lovely place called Tapa Tapa right on the corner that has breakfast, lunch & dinner, so this might not be an issue at all for those who like to enjoy all their meals out. Even the McCafe had good coffee to go, is open 24 hrs and is right next door. We had an amazing trip and loved this apartment as a base. Thank you!
