Phil welcomed us to the apartment and told us everything we needed to know about the area and our apartment. It really is a beautiful and stylish place: What you see in the pictures is what you get. Its clean and spacious with a well equipped kitchen should you wish to cook. Gracia is the perfect atmospheric place to stay with its lovely old buildings. small streets, restaurants and bars, plazas and shops. It is within short walking distance to Park Guell and also Sagrada Familia and less than half hour walk to Passage de Gracia with all the amazing Moderniste architecture.
We would recommend this as a place to stay with or without children when visiting Barcelona. Its close to metro if you are too tired to walk ;)
