We enjoyed our stay in this apartment very much. The location is excellent, near the beach and the Diagonal Mar shopping Centre. Transport facilities are great, and the apartment is very spacious, well equipped and furnished nicely. The beds are very comfortable, and kitchen and bathroom modern and easy to clean. The air-conditioning heated the bedrooms quickly (we turned them off after a few minutes) but the living room heater is slower, but adequate.
The area is very safe to walk around in. We walked to and from our son's apartment every night, and never worried about our safety. We did a lot of walking on the promenade in the sunny fine weather and enjoyed eating outside, a bonus in the Christmas period.
We were very glad of the Metro service close by on New Year's Eve, when we used it to get to the Palau de Musica for a concert. Our friends who took a taxi were held up by the traffic due to the Marathon, and missed some of the items.
We enjoyed our stay in Barcelona, and the apartment was a wonderful base. We would be happy to use it again.
