The apartment is everything we expected and what you see is what you get. The pictures tell the story, it was clean, it has a lot of space, the little terrace in the backyard is just perfect to relax on after a long day walk.
The metro station is indeed super close to the apartment and in 2 stops you are on Rambla and Columb's Monument is in plain sight. There's a shop right across the street and a larger one around the corner. There is even a pizza place next to it.
It took us about 45 minutes to get there from the airport, but it's a simple route.
Overall, the apartment is great, the hosts are lovely people and very helpful. We had a blast in Barcelona and we just hope we'll be back soon.
Thank you for everything :)
