You will have a great stay at Giulia's place. Full of charm and colour and character. Beautiful home with fabulous terrace full of flowers and sun and colour. She also has a lovely cat Nina and very friendly dog - Bambu. We stayed in her daughter's room as she was away and were in a home having a real experience rather than a holiday let type BnB. Giulia was full of advice on where to go and what to see which enriched our visit. The Sants neighbourhood is full of Catalan vitality, with bars and shops galore. It's a bus ride to the beach and La Ramblas from here but the infrastructure of city travel is easy to navigate and cheapest done with travel cards available from metro stations. It's a more real and gritty part of town, if you want to feel the real vibe of Barcelona rather than the more gentrified, sanitised touristic view from the other side!
