Irene's apartment is absolutely perfect! It is close to the metro and many delicious restaurants, and at the same time very quiet. It's very clean and comfortable with an amazing deck, shower, and hammock. Irene's parents were very nice, and her father provided an excellent layout of the city to help us navigate the major tourist sights. My wife and I loved this place so much that we almost wished Barcelona wasn't as fun and interesting so we could spend more time in it!!
