Absolutely fantastic! This apartment is in a beautiful building in a wonderful location.
I would absolutely stay here again when I return to Barcelona.
Apartment: The apartment is exactly as it is pictured, if not better. A great layout for a group. A big living area, 4 bedrooms, and 2.5 baths. The master bedroom is enormous -with a huge bathroom and a jacuzzi tub (very unusual for Europe). We comfortably fit 4 adults and 3 children under three in this apartment. The host and her team were incredibly accommodating in providing us with cribs and high chairs for our kids, which was extremely helpful. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals at home if needed.
Location: If you want to feel like a local, I would highly recommend staying in Gracia! With small streets, adorable squares, and lots of families, it is a perfect location to really feel at home. While the apartment is about a 30-45 minute walk to any of the "major" tourist attractions, there is a bus directly across the street from the apartment that will get you all over Barcelona very easily. You could also spend days just wandering around Gracia with it's adorable small streets, amazing shopping, and delicious restaurants.
Arina also connected us with a service that was able to arrange for airport transport (with three carseats), luggage transport, an in-home chef, and basically any services that we could need. The communication was fast and accurate. Check in was smooth. I would definitely recommend a stay in this home!
