Meri’s place was excellent. The best part about this apartment is the location. It is in the heart of the Poblenou neighborhood, located on “las ramblas de poblenou” and down the block from the nicer beach. The neighborhood is out of the main part of the city, so there are a lot less tourists, especially at the beach which is a lot less crowded. However, there are a lot of great restaurants and shops all within a five minute walking distance and the subway into the rest of the city is about a ten minute walk. The apartment itself is great, very clean with a nice kitchen and living room. The rooftop terrace is very nice for wine in the early evening. Meri was a great host very fast to respond and very kind. I would highly recommend this place if you want a mix of a beach vacation and city time.
