Wow, the view of the Sagrada Familia is fantastic and is the first thing you see when you walk in the apartment. The large patio allowed us to sit and enjoy the view. The beds were firm and the hot water plentiful. The kitchen was well equipped and there were basic items to get you started like bottled water. We did use the washing machine and hung our clothes to dry off a small covered back terrace which was handy. You can easily get to the metro and trains from this location and can walk to many restaurants and sites. This is a great place to explore Barcelona from.
