Our stay at Elisabeth’s place was very nice. Elisabeth was gracious and helpful, and gave us some brief tips about the close by restaurants and markets. We had everything we needed in the apartment, so we did not need to contact her during our stay. The accommodations were as expected - the apartment is small and clean. Not perfect but certainly nice for two. Any more than two persons would be difficult. There is a washer, no dryer but there is a clothes line on the roof and it’s very easy to access. There is access to the roof and the view is spectacular. There is an elevator (apartment on the 5th floor). Don’t leave the elevator door open even slightly as the elevator won’t work and some crazy lady in the building will pound on the door and yell at you for it. We learned the hard way. The neighborhood was the real treat. There are so many great restaurants, shops, public squares and markets within a couple of blocks of the apartment. You could stay within a mile of the apartment and feel you had a worthwhile trip to Barcelona. I will certainly stay in Gracia each time I return. The northern part of the Gothic Quarter is great, but more touristy, more people. Overall, we are very happy about our stay and absolutely loved the neighborhood once we got out to explore it. Thank you Elisabeth.
