We felt we really lucked out with this apartment! The location was superb with metro stop a block away, tons of restaurants along the Gaudi boulevard around the corner, taxi stand at the corner, little market with everything you might need right downstairs. It was our first visit to Barcelona and everything went off without a hitch. Gustavo, who met us upon arrival, was very helpful: recommended a great Basque restaurant for pinchas. We could have easily stayed longer. Please note: the bedroom (and therefore the bed, too) is small by American standards, but if it's insufficient for the two of you, the futon in the living area will let you spread out a bit for sleeping. Very fun place with lots going on in the neighborhood, great to look out from the balcony and catch a glimpse of everyday life in Barcelona.
