The apartment was perfect for us because it was close to the sites, and the start of tours. The kitchen had everything we needed, the laundry facilities worked, the internet was fast, and the apartment is very close to shops and restaurants. We could walk to many of the activities we wanted to do and the metro was a few steps from our door. Taxis were readily available. It was the perfect location for site seeing in Barcelona. The apartment was clean and modern, and the lift worked. This is a great place to stay in Barcelona.
