Good location if you don't need to be next door to the hot spots. 600m walk to the SANTS estacio. Easy to hop on the metro to go anywhere in city. Purchase the hola Barcelona card to use public transit. Within a block or two of apartment you'll find major supermarket, restaurants and coffee shops. Coffee pods would have been nice in apartment though. Easily accommodated 6 of us for our 3 night stay prior to cruise. Was nice to have the terrace. Bottled water in fridge was nice touch. Thank you Jordi
