We found this apartment to be an ideal base from which to explore Barcelona. The flat is very pleasant and was perfect for our family of 4. When we arrived Pere had left food for a breakfast the following morning including wrapped croissants and a large supply of pods for the Nespresso machine. The flat is located on the Western side of the attractive Gracia area. The street is fairly quiet and contains several bars, 2 small supermarkets, a bakery and a green grocers, great for buying essentials. The Muntaner Metro (Ferrocarril) station is five minutes away at the end of the street providing fast access (4 stops) to Placa de Catalunya underground station which is right by the Rambla and the Gothic Quarter. Distances don't seem to be far in Barcelona; so we walked from the flat to Casa Batllo which was a pleasant 25 minute walk. We would recommend this flat to friends and would like to return some time.
