The apartment was perfect for our stay in Barcelona. The location was away from the tourist area, but so easy to get into the centre on the metro. We used both the outside terraces, it was so nice to have a view and be able to sit in the fresh air. We enjoyed all the local shops, the market , the bakery outside the front door!! And especially De Angelis restaurant for the best pizza. We would have no hesitation in recommending this place if you want an authentic experience.
