The apartment was in a great location. Just a block or so from busy areas so it's not noisy at all but still close enough to feel like you're in the middle of everything. Really close to a metro stop as well. Checking in was easy and smooth. Marta made sure to answer all of my questions before we arrived so we felt really comfortable. The apartment was clean when we checked in, and it had everything we needed in regards to dishes/cups and cook-ware. Enough towels and bedding for all three of us as well. The pictures are a perfect representation of what the apartment looked like so we were happy with it. All in all, it made a great home-base for our week in Barcelona!
