The apartment was nice and modern with most amenities you'd expect. It is a bit far of a walk from everything except Sagrada Familia, but there is a metro station about 5 minutes away. About 2.5 miles walk to the beach. The only problem we had was the air conditioning was not working, and we didn't figure out that it was actually broken until the last day, so the apartment was very hot all the time. Other than that a good place to stay when visiting Barcelona.
