Caridad’s place is in a GREAT location in Barcelona. Las Ramblas Catalunya have tons of restaurants, cafes, stores, and it’s not too touristy. Paseig de Gracía (where the famous Gaudí’s La Pedrera and Casa Ballot are located) is one block away. The Sagrada Familia and Las Ramblas are just a 10-15 min walk away. The lovely El Born and Gotic neighborhoods a mere 20min walk away. And, if you’re in the mood, you can get to La Barceloneta beach in 30-35 min walking too. My husband and I were able to walk everywhere from there and only had to take a taxi to the Tibidabo for the sunset.
Mario was a great host! We arrived in Barcelona earlier than expected, and Mario was kind enough to let us check in earlier. He came in person to give us the keys and let us in. He also gave us great tips for restaurants and things to do nearby.
We can’t wait to be back - in Barcelona and at Caridad’s place!!
