A great location in central Barcelona. The 7 flights of stairs to get to the 5th floor can be a bit daunting if you have walked your feet off round the city. Our advice would be to try and secure one of the bigger rooms in the apartment if you can - ours was the smallest and opened directly onto the kitchen area. Mercedes is a very caring and generous host who has a very good knowledge of the city, it's sights and places to eat. She provides a buffet breakfast and serves sangria or wine in the evening - what more could you ask for!
