Excellent place to stay. Apartment itself is compact but well-designed. Cooking facilities adequate (two burners and a microwave. The glory of the apartment is its top floor location with a big deck to the northwest (including distant Sagrada Familia) and a large picture window on the opposite side with a view of the Mediterranean. Location is excellent with local stores and restaurants, two nearby subway lines, and a few useful bus stops. Walkable (twenty minutes or so) to shore, to center of Barri Gotic, or to Sagrada Familia. Also, it is a very clean building with a reliable elevator.
