Great hosts who helped with logistics and who went well beyond the expected when one of us became ill. We spoke Spanish with Enric but he speaks enough English to get by. Location perfect for exploring on foot. Maps and guides available. Spotlessly clean, well provisioned with utensils and kitchen wear, bedding and towels. Real shower! Water and a bottle of wine in frig.
Only thing one must be aware of is that it is on the second floor (3rd floor in USA terms) reached by tiny curved stairway; not too suitable for someone with any significant disabilities. Like most European apartments, it is small but comfortable. As well, "Passatge" means "passage" in Catalán, meaning the access street is very narrow but passable - barely - for a car. Parking, as always in a big city, must be taken into consideration. If driving, get a ticket online for parking in nearby garages before departing (about 12€/day). As to be expected being in the middle of a big city, there are city noises. However, the upside is that there are convenience stores, pharmacies and restaurants close by. Wonderful Peruvian pastry shop right downstairs.
We thought it was a great spot and will stay there again on our next Barcelona visit.
