The area is just perfect for traveling - this was my 3rd time of visiting Barcelona but I would say this is the best location I've ever been to.
Silvia welcomed me so much and the room is just same as described. I can hear some noise from a window in the room connected to corridor but unless you are a super light sleeper, it shouldn't be a problem.

She gave me very much useful tips about the city and was very pleasant to talk with her when we were both in.

highly recommended!
