Gloria is a fantastic host. She's very accommodating and easy to contact. The apartment is in a perfect location. One-stop from Placa Cataluna and half a block from La Ramblas. The apartment is most suited for people who love the nightlife because one of the best nightclubs in the city is directly across the street from the apartment. It is open from midnight to 6 am. There is a line down the block starting at 11 pm and the club-goers are usually gone by 7 am. It is easy to meet people right on the street every night ready to party and have a good time. If you are a night owl that loves to party, this will be the perfect spot for you. However, if you need a quiet place to rest then this might not be an ideal location. There are 3 sets of doors for the bedroom and living room but that isn't quite enough to block the sounds from the crowds. The smaller bedroom has very loud noise from the hallway and elevator during the night. The only other thing to mention is that the housekeeper doesn't knock on the door when she arrives at the apartment. She simply unlocks the door and walks in unannounced, so make sure you are completely dressed and ready 15 minutes before her scheduled arrival. Despite this, we enjoyed the beauty and location of this apartment.
