This is a very large apartment, great for large families or 2 or more families traveling together. It is away from the tourist areas but close to the beach and you can get to the center of town quickly via bus (1 block), metro (4 blocks), taxi (about 10 euro), or walking! (Leisurely some of us walked from Barcelonetta to apartment in about an hour and 15 minutes). This is not the fault of the host, but the elevator was out of service for 2 of the 3 days we were there. Since it is on the 5th floor, this was a bit of a burden to my 72 year old mother! We managed but if you have members of your group with mobility issues you may want to consider something on a lower floor! Otherwise very happy; thanks!
