Really pleasant stay at Irene's apartment in Pobel Sec. Irene was there to greet us when we arrived (and it was a Friday night!). Apartment was great, lovely and clean and fresh and had everything we needed and more. It even has a nespresso machine. The bed was really comfortable, just what we needed when on a break away from the kids! Pobel Sec is a fab area. There is a street called 'Blai' 2 minutes from the apartment that had great bars and cafes so you could literally step outside and get a drink, cava or coffee. It was only 10-15 minutes walk to Le Rambles or 5minutes to the Montjuic area, like I said, great location. The only negative was that there are quite a few flights of steps up to the apartment so probably not for the older or infirm traveller.
Overall a really fantastic place to stay, we would thoroughly recommend the apartment and the area. Thanks Irene.
