The apartment is lovely, clean, and spacious. Location is perfect for our needs - the Metro (subway system), bus stop, and taxi area are around 10-20 meters from the main door. The shopping area, Las Ramblas, is a very pleasant walk (2 blocks) from the apartment. There is a 24 hour convenient store in front of the building, lots of restaurants, a pharmacy, and coffee shops in the neighborhood. Though I did not see either Claudia or Oriol, they were always in touch with me through text message and WhatsApp and were very helpful. The place is worth going back to.
