Beautiful place in a perfect location, both if it is your first trip to Barcelona and you want to see everything by Gaudi, and if you have been there many times before. It is simply a great place and area to come back to after a day of sightseeing. The apartment was quiet, and the kitchen had everything you needed to prepare breakfast after a dip in the pool. Close to grocery shops and two metro stations. The Gracia area is a nice as the locals claim. Highly recommended!
