We stayed in this apartment for five weeks and really loved it.
The location is just perfect. Not far away from Arc de Triomf, near the park where zoo is located. 10 minutes walk to the sea. 15-20 minutes to the city center (Place de Catalunya, La Rambla). A lot of supermarkets, coffee houses, bars are around. The bus stop is near the entrance to the house.
Concerning the apartment. Fresh renovation, modern furniture, two bedrooms, handy kitchen. Clean & shiny. Nice view from the balcony. And yeah, one can swim in the pool or tan next to.
So it's ideal place for long stay. Perfect for families or small groups (3 people in our case). I totally recommend this place.
