The apartment has the beautiful terrace with real botanic garden and nice views along the quiet (side) street. However, it is a stone throw away from Placa d'Espanya with all kind of transportation (buses, metro, buses to the airport). On the other hand, it was pleasure to return from the city to it by walking along Avenue Parallel (Avinguda del Parallel). Very nice shopping mall is across Placa d'Espanya with perfect 360 degrees view from the top. It is probably one of the best locations to visit Fira Barcelona, Magic Fountain, Montjuic, both new and old Botanic garden, while city center (La Rambla, Gothic Quarter, Maremagnum) is at walking distance.
