This is one of the best situated places if you need to be in the center of Barcelona. Right on Passeig de Gracia, steps from the metro, taxis, some of the best restaurants and shopping in town. The view of Casa Batlló from the living area is quite a treat. The apartment is in a quiet building - we occasionally heard some daytime noise from a school nearby, but it was so silent at night, you'd forget you're in the middle of town. If you're traveling with severe jetlag, the apartment offers great blackouts, thick windows, comfortable beds and a great AC/heating system.
The place has two large masters with king beds and ensuite bathrooms, and two smaller bedrooms (that share a hallway bathroom) with two twin beds each. it also offers conveniences like a washer and dryer, hair appliances, plug adapters, Nespresso, strong wifi signal, etc. Ventura is a wonderful and experienced host, answering any questions that came up as well as offering suggestions for coffee and services nearby. He is a very kind and attentive host and you'll enjoy staying here!
