My wife and I were here for almost three months. Great, eclectic neighborhood. Spacious apartment, elegant, high, Catalan vault ceilings, comfortable furniture, little street noise, bedrooms seem soundproof. Modern kitchen with high-quality pots, pans, etc. A table that can accommodate dinner guests. Street level entry, no stairs, with double-secure doors. A ten minute walk to La Rambla. A Metro stop two blocks away that gets you to Plaza Catalunya in four minutes, Vila de Grácia in ten. A short walk to El Mercat de San Antoni for the freshest seafood, vegetables, meats, cheeses and the best jamón. Responsive host. Okay, the kitchen knives could have been sharper. Other than that, you can't go wrong with Nikko's Poble Sec apartment.
