The location of the apartment was great, close to the Paral-lel subway station. From this station you can go anywhere you want in Barcelona. Another thing that I like was the building and the street were really quiet. It is not located in a very touristy area but close to all the sites still. The restaurants in the area were awesome, some of the best Tapas ((Quimet-Quimet) (Blia Tonight) and (Blia 9)) places in town steps away from the place. One of the best pizza places I have ever had was really close, Try(Pizza del Sortidor) please! Lyonel was the easiest host I have had, greeted me at the door and was very nice. The apartment was just right for our needs. Good bed, shower, useful kitchen, and wifi. Shower could use a little bit better cleaning but other than that I was happy with the apartment.
