This is an excellent apartment to stay in while visiting Barcelona. It is clean and bright, spacious and comfortable. Fresh, clean linen and towels, shower gels all provided, along with tea, coffee, maps of the district and the city. The location is fabulous. There are lots of great bars and restaurants a short walk away. There is a medical centre, pharmacies, a dentist, and a variety of supermarkets. You can have fresh baked bread, tapas, pinchos or McDonalds, whatever takes your fancy, all available within a few minutes walk of the apartment. All your needs and requirements can be catered for on your doorstep. The métro station is also close and convenient. The funicular to Mount Juic is on your doorstep. Port Vell / Las Ramblas is only a 10/15 minute walk away.
There was a religious festival taking place while we were there and we could watch it from the top of our street on Carrer de Blai. We were also treated to the Catalan spectacle that is the Catalan Castells or human towers which also took place around the corner from the apartment. So while the apartment is a quiet retreat from the hustle of Barcelona's crowded tourist spots, in fact you don't miss out because you get to see true Catalan culture here, mixing with the locals and their families who come out to eat tapas and participate in local tradtions and festivals.
Ronaldo was very helpful, accommodating and hospitable. He helped us orient ourselves and provided us with tourist information, help and guidance. He was always accessible and easy to communicate with. I
would highly recommend this great apartment.
