Our family of four had a great stay at Fransisca’s place. She was able to accommodate us when our train arrived late and helped us become oriented with the public transport to some of the places we were interested in visiting. There are a lot of public transport options within a 5-10 minute walk, there is a direct bus to the beach, and another to the main train station. Even though it is only a 10 minute walk to La Sagrada Familia, the neighborhood and its cafes, bars, and restaurants have a local vibe.
