Maria's flat is very comfortable in a safe building near many wonderful sights and restaurants in the Eixample neighborhood of Barcelona. After traveling to different sights around the city, we quickly realized how lucky we were to be in this well maintained, rather safe area of the city. The bus stop is directly in front of the building and the Sagrada Familia cathedral and metro stop are within a quick 5 minute walk. There are great little breakfast cafes and wonderful restaurants all around the area, plus several markets for shopping. We even cooked ourselves a meal one night! The apartment is segmented off with two bedrooms off of the living room, with a closing door to separate the sleeping area from the living area, and a third bedroom/bathroom off of the kitchen. We were travelling with my daughter and my mother in law and everyone felt that they had space to escape to for some quiet time. The apartment is very quiet, except in the morning as there is a school behind the building. We enjoyed hearing the sounds of children playing rather than traffic! Maria's flat is very economically priced and a great choice for families! travelling in Barcelona
