The location was great! We walked all over the city and only needed to take a cab to Parc Guell. The city is bustling and there’s lots of construction but it’s what would be expected in a big city. Tons of places to eat and so much to do. When you get back you can burn all the yummy food off by taking the stairs or take the elevator if you ate too much like we did!! Definitely recommend staying at Phil and Fiona’s place!
