This was a great spot to stay in Barcelona as it was my first time ever in Barcelona. Pretty close to the city center and areas you would want to see if visiting for the first time. It was also close to several metro stops. The apartment was fabulous. Just as pictured and spacious. There are also small little stores down stairs if you need anything like laundry detergent or some groceries. Marcel was a great host. Communication was very easy and we enjoyed our stay immensely. I highly recommend if you are staying in Barcelona!
