Just returned from 5 nights great place to stay. I think the apartment is better then the photos, the layout is quirky with the bathroom having no doors but that didn't bother us at all. The terrace is great, ideal for an aperitif before heading out to one of the many restaurants in the area. Good shower, plenty of towels. Air con was good and useful. Xavi was waiting on the street when we arrived in a taxi from the airport only 35 euros quick and easy. He showed us the apartment and map of the area and then took us to a local tapas bar and joined us for a beer, he was very friendly, and helpful throughout our stay and organised our taxi to the airport. Gracia is a great neighbourhood the restaurant across the road Lata Bern is definitely worth a try we went twice very good and reasonable. Not far from 2 underground stations so very easy to reach other areas of Barcelona. I would definitely stay again if visiting Barcelona.
