We enjoyed the apartment. Small, quiet, and great for a couple. We spent most of our time out in the city so large luxurious apartment was not needed. . One thing to point out, the mattress was firm but that is of course is based on personal taste and is by no means a negative towards Pep and his apartment. Overall great location if you'd like to be in a quieter neighborhood with more of a local flare. Very close to Sagrada Familia but about a 35-40 minute walk to the Gothic Quarter and the main city center. It didn't bother us. It actually allowed us to explore the city by foot and try different shops and restaurants throughout the day. If you'd rather be right in the mix than it could be a bit further than expected. Either way we enjoyed the neighborhood and the ability to explore. The check in was seamless and they were helpful to point out local places to try in the neighborhood.
