Susana's apartment is spacious yet homely and within easy walking distance to the hustle and bustle of the Gothic Quarter and La Rambla - but in a quieter area. Although quieter here are still plenty of bars, restaurants, shops and a large market in the area, it had the perfect balance for us. We also loved being able to chill out in the private courtyard to escape the crowds for a bit. We didn't really use the kitchen to be honest as there were too many exciting places to eat and it was only a short visit, but it seemed well equipped with an oven, microwave and toaster. The shower was powerful and hot and the bed comfortable. Her apartment was very simple to get to using the T2 bus from the airport (second stop) and she gave us lots of information about things to do etc when we arrived. Thank you for a lovely stay Susana!
