The apartment is very well located and cozily decorated, just as described. It's just north of the Born district, a couple of blocks from La Rambla and the Arc de Triomf. Julia, the host, was always available and offered great advice on getting around. There's a metro station (Urquinaona/líneas 1 y 4) across the street from the building, and a supermarket (Mercadona) across the street. Couldn't be better...
We honestly felt right at home. I'd definitely recommend anyone staying here.
