We felt very fortunate to be able to stay at the beautiful, spacious, historic apartment conveniently located in the Eixample neighborhood. The local market with a variety of vendors was just a couple of blocks away, as was the Passage de Gracia metro stop. The apartment was outfitted with everything we needed, including air conditioning and a washer and dryer. We spent much of our time, and had most of our meals on the small terrace looking down on the square of private yards shared by the block of apartments. It was a restful place to come home to after days of walking and being with crowds of tourists. Even though there were just 2 of us, we would have been comfortable with 4 or more.
