the apartment is beautifully located in the "real" Barcelona. Its orientation is away from the street so that you will still enjoy quietness. One of the bedrooms has no window to the outside and the toilet in smaller bathroom in the hallway does not handle toilet paper so you have to use the bin provided for that. The main room with the integrated kitchen is beautifully furnished and very spacious. You can really spent time there, it is very comfortable and has a truly aesthetic quality to it. The appliances and the future are a bit worn, but fulfil their function. Communication with the bureau was easy and quick and the people were helpful. I would recommend the place and come back and stay there again, if I'm in Barcelona the next time.
