Loved the apartment, loved the neighborhood! In my view, the best place to stay in Barcelona right now. The center is too crowded and Gracia is lively as well, but less hyper-touristic and with better dining options than in the center. Kris was super-nice, I only saw her once though--which was fine for me, it made my feel like it was really "my" apartment for the month. The only potential downside is that there is a bar across the road (Gato Negro) where people often stand outside and talk quite loudly up until 3am. Also, garbage trucks come collect the trash each night around 1-2am and again in the morning. I got used to it after a few nights, however, and ear plugs might solve it altogether. I would 100% recommend and come here again whenever I'm back in Barcelona, especially for the location and charm of the apartment itself.
