The apartment is just as pictured, clean and cozy with everything close. In a quiet building and safe area to relax with access to good restaurants, shopping areas and beach. Metro is 1 minute walk from the building that you can access most site of Barcelona. Alex is a great host and willing to help anytime needed. I will definitely recommend the apartment. If I would choose a place to stay for my next visit to Barcelona, for sure I will choose the same apartment.
