For anyone looking to visit Barcelona this location is central to all the sights! We were able to walk everywhere. Also anything you need is right in the immediate neighborhood.. The neighborhood is residential and very safe. The apartment is large, clean and nicely decorated without being cluttered. Having 1 1/2 bathrooms also made it convenient for four adults. We were met as soon as we got out of the cab and Nina was nice to allow us to leave our luggage in the apartment until check in. That enabled us to go find a local spot for lunch. To be honest we only had two small concerns. We were told prior to check in the washing machine was broken. That was inconvenient, especially having only one towel per person for six nights. Otherwise this is a fabulous apartment!
