Fantastic location, it was a 5 min walk to Plaça de la Catalunya where the hop on hop off bus tours could be found, and the start of La Rambla from where you could easily walk into the Gothic Quarter. It was also close to the metro so it only took us 10 mins to get to La Sagrada Familia. It was easy to get a taxi or an Uber. The apartment was a great combination of traditional features with a modern refurb, was very clean, and a small supermarket close by. The hosts were very friendly & helpful. There were some great recommendations for places to eat out which we tried.
