The location was wonderful. Only 1 block from the metro, but very walkable to popular areas. Our group included 2 families with 4 teenagers and the space was very large so easy to accommodate so many people. One bathroom had 2 showers so that helped speed up getting 3 teenage girls ready. We called when we landed at the airport and they were quick to meet us at the flat. Although the apartment wasn't ready, we were able to leave our luggage - which was very helpful - before we started exploring Barcelona. No elevator, so be prepared to carry your luggage up 2 flights. Historic flat with 2 balconies. We enjoyed opening the doors and watching Barcelona wake up every day. 2 grocery stores within steps of the front door.
