Maria’s place has a pretty good location near arc de triumf. It is very near to la boqueria on la Rambla and all of the resturants in el borne, so we were happy to be able to stay close for dinner every night after a long day of sight seeing. There is both a nearby metro stop and a nearby bus stop, so it was very easy to use public transport to get even to our farthest destinations, like Park Güell and Montjuic. Many main attractions are a mere 10-15 minute walk.
Eduardo was available for early check in and luggage drop off and Eduardo took out a map to show us the apartment location as well as locations and walking times to all major sites.
We did feel like the pictures made the apartment look very chic while it was a bit dated, particularly the master bedroom with the faded and miscolored comforter.
