What a wonderful location! It is so close to shopping, many of Barcelona's most famous landmarks and wonderful restaurants (make sure you try Casa Amalia, Nine9, Don Kilo and Babula Bar 1937). We loved going to Cafe del Centre for an afternoon beverage and Kim was terrific. Having the Concepcion market around the corner was heaven and the pasta shop just below the apartment made for some delicious home-cooked meals.
As for the apartment, it is very comfortable. The living room can easily seat 5-6 adults. The two main bedrooms share the same balcony that looks out over a (sometimes noisy) central courtyard with a lovely garden. We loved watching the parrots flying right above us as they were on a mission to built their nests. The front balcony is quite spacious and is a perfect place for coffee or cocktails. We used the 3rd bedroom with the bunk beds as our storage closet. There are some deferred maintenance issues but nothing that seriously detracted from a wonderful month in Barcelona.
Ignacio was responsive and accommodated each of our requests. All in all, if were to return to Barcelona, we would probably stay at the Silver House again.
