This apartment is efficient and affordable away from the city center. The neighborhood feels safe and they are markets conveniently nearby. The place was clean and the beds are comfortable. It's quite small but okay for 2 people. Be warned it is very loud. The walls are very thin and the neighbors are noisy. You can hear them stomping above and loud voices. People on the street also talk loudly and the motorbikes whizzing by are loud. Also, from the metro, the apartment is up 4 steep hills. You must be in great shape to do this. I am and I still found it challenging and exhausting. The apartment is also not "stunning" - it's plain and simple. There is no view from the balcony. It's an uphill climb to Park Guell also.
