The place is situated overlooking Gran Via (a busy street) directly across the entrance for Glories mall, which contains a supermarket, restaurants, and retails stores. Since there were 4 of us, we used taxi services to commute in and out of the city center. While the street was very busy, there weren't very many free taxis driving by the place so we needed to use a taxi app to hail one for most rides. If you're planning on using public transportation, the bus and metro stops were close by. The apartment itself was comfortable. The AC was nice to have as it got a little warm while we were there. The full kitchen and washing machine was also useful to us. The main complaint about the room's was the lack of real windows in the smaller rooms. They don't actually let in sunlight. Besides that, we had a nice stay in Barcelona. Thank you Marcos!
