The apartment is a great place to stay when visiting Barcelona. It is located just outside the main part of the city but you can easily get to and from the city in 10-15 mins using the metro station which is a 5-10 min walk away. The apartment is also a 10 minute walk from Park Guell and local shops are within a 5 minute walk from the apartment. Overall a great apartment in a superb location for relaxing after a hard day of being a tourist in Barcelona, would highly recommend.
