The apartment is fantastic - spectacular views of La Sagrada Familia and the city from the balcony, spacious with lovely decor, light-filled and very clean. Everything worked perfect. The neighborhood features restaurants and cafes, interesting shops, patisseries, and fresh fruit stores. The Metro entrance is directly in front. Because of the height from the street, I found it to be quiet. The temperature was comfortable despite the August heat - a breeze from the ocean helped. Alfredo and Pastoria are very kind and helpful. I would love to stay there again!!
