Grand place.
Fantastic location. Subway station is on the doorstep. This is important for a few reasons - firstly, it's on the line from the airport, secondly, its on the train line to Sitges - where we found the best patatas bravas we ate during our stay in Catalunya in a speciality cheese bar called La Formatgeria, thirdly, its a short stop from the Camp Nou if that floats your boat and finally - all the sights you want to see, are all within walking distance (Sagrada Famiglia, Port, Nacional Museo).
And best of all - the view! THE VIEW! Incredible... Terrace was brilliant. Sun shine, olives, pan, laughter and good times.
Book it. Its fantastic!
