The apartment was lovely and in great location near the Arc de Triomf, Ciutadella Park and Estación del Norte. There were several grocery stores and good restaurants in a walking distance, which was great. The kitchen was fully equipped, there was a nice living room with a TV and a small balcony. We've had no reception in the kitchen but the WIFI in the living room was allright. As probably in many Barcelona apartments there was some noise during the weekend nights. The communication was smooth, we've received instructions for check in and Maria's husband met us by the apartment. Altogether we have felt very comfortable at Maria's place, the price was great and we would definitely recommend it.
