The apartment is in a beautiful building in the Eixample area. Everything you need for your stay is close - supermarkets for supplies, cafes, bars, restaurants, Diagonal Metro. The apartment is very well equipped for cooking but we didn't cook as we were spoilt for choice with good quality, good value restaurants on the doorstep. The beds are comfortable with plenty of bedding/spare blankets/pillows/cushions. Very comfortable living area. Hot water all the time. Good powerful shower. Bath towels large enough to wrap around your body (which is so often not the case - or maybe that's just me eating too much lovely food!!) Mirrors. All in all a very nice space. The terrace is lovely and HUGE (entered via a 'back' door but you have the whole of the top floor to yourself so that's no problem). Carlos was charming.
You may experience a bit of noise from renovations taking place adjacent but this would never begin before 9:30 am by which time you should be out, about and enjoying all that Barcelona has to offer!
