This is a great apartment, centrally located. It is actually much more impressive in person than in the pictures. High ceilings, beautiful floors, and large apartment. The host have also included many nice amenities that make the stay even better - nice towels, information on places to go and things to do, as well as an assortment of goodies and wines for you to purchase. They clearly go the extra mile and we were impressed. The neighborhood is great with a wonderful bakery downstairs and lots of other shops and restaurants near by. It is only a few blocks from Passeig de Gracia and easy access to metro.
