you can not go wrong with the location of this place, you are in the center of a great neighbor with so many shops, restaurants and bars right outside your door. The studio was exactly like in the pictures and perfect for 1st time to Barcelona. I only want to mention that the city stays up late so can be a little noisy if you are a light sleeper and most of the time lots of noise in morning as well, but we were able to ignore most of it. We would definitely recommend!
