We stayed nearly four weeks, and the apartment turned out to be very cozy and convenient. My wife is a very light sleeper and is usually disturbed by street noise in hotels, but had no problems here since the apartment balcony overlooks an interior courtyard and is usually very quiet at all times. There is only a very faint rumble from the nearby metro trains. The neighborhood seems safe, and shopping markets are close by. We enjoyed our stay, and hope to return again some time (maybe 2026 when the Sagrada Familia is finished!).
