We had a wonderful trip in Barcelona. The city is amazing and Alex's apartment too. Perfect location within 5mn from the beach or 20mn from born by foot. The rest easy accessible with bus or metro. Great bakery just downstairs and supermarket opposite to it. Car secured in the garage. Everything clean, comfortable and mostly quiet (a little bit noise in the children room from the street and from the neighbors). All in all we would recommend it especially for families!
