Christina’s flat had all that we needed for a 6 day stay in Barcelona. Very easy to reach by public transport from the airport. A safe area with lots of restaurants, little shops etc for everyday needs and just a 10-15 minute walk into the Gothic quarter and then La Rambla. In the other direction it was 10minutes to the ‘Magic fountains’. The metro was very close and easy to use for going a bit further and when our feet had got sore from long days looking at all the sights!
