We really enjoyed staying at this flat for our Barcelona vacation. It was large enough for our group and well laid out. The bathrooms were nice and I was glad to have the soaking tub in the master bedroom after days of 15+ miles of walking (soaking the feet were the only thing that helped!). We barely used the kitchen as we ate out at all of the fantastic restaurants so close by, but we appreciated that it was stocked. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was amazing. We hadn't planned on washing anything but after an accidental spill of coffee down my jacket while walking one day, it was nice to have.
The beds and pillows were comfy -- which is incredibly nice when you are traveling and exhausted each day.
Location can't be beat -- walk out your front door and you are at Passeig de Gracias and 2 blocks from Casa Batllo. You can also walk a mile to the Gothic District which was pretty quick.
Area is super safe and felt fine walking home very late at night.
Highly recommend.
PS. We had a snafu with the key to the apartment and the battery died for the door. Called Lluis and he promptly came to the apartment around 8pm. Had to get a locksmith out and everything. We were tired and exhausted but we went downstairs and got a few beers and within an hour and a half, it was fixed. Lluis picked up our tab and got us into the apartment so we could shower and go to bed. I was pleased with how he handled it and was very nice and helpful. Highly recommend him as a host.
