This is a charming flat with lots of potential. The area is great and, while the street is quite noisy, we were able to get quiet nights by closing all the doors in the flat. The thing to know though is that the bed -- an old futon -- is incredibly uncomfortable. With no cosy seating in the living area, this means that it is very difficult to relax once in the flat. The shower head was also off the wall when we were there. Good to keep these things in mind, depending on what you need in Barcelona. Virginie is a great guide to El Raval.
