Roger’s place was convenient for everywhere we wanted to go, but away from the busiest areas. This suited my family perfectly. The Llacuna metro stop was only about a five-minute walk. The flat is located on a quiet street, but was only a quick walk to a lively area (on Rambla de Poblenou) with many good dining choices. Roger provides a long list of very helpful recommendations, including music to get in the mood for your trip to Barcelona. The air conditioning was lovely after a long, hot day and the beds (one in the bedroom and a pullout sofa in the living room) were comfortable. Highly recommended.
