With 2 bedrooms plus a sofa bed this is a good sized apartment for families and great having a washing/drying machine. Loads of small supermarkets and bakeries around, and the metro is just 3 minutes walk, with the magnificent Sagrada Familia 15 minutes walk or one metro stop. The same metro line takes you to the main railway station which is great. Get a 10 ride metro ticket which covers much of where you will go including the airport. The lift to the apartment can be temperamental and there are steps if you have any climbing issues, but the apartment is very secure and reasonably quiet and has aircon.
