The space is basic and nice, with very high end appliances in the small kitchen area. Location is ideal, far enough off Ramblas, but super close to everything including public transportation and the fun winding streets of el born and the gothic areas. We are avid city travelers and don’t mind street noise, but it was definitely louder than the typical noise you’d experience on a busy road. It’s too bad there isn’t just one door to the bedroom or insulation to help with the noise. You can hear the church bells too, but we found that charming and not disruptive. The view of the square and church is very nice. On a long visit (more than a few days), I’d personally prefer a little more space and quiet. However, overall we enjoyed the opportunity to stay in that area.
