We had a nice time here during our stay in Barcelona! The apartment is very spacious, more than we anticipated, and would be great for families and larger groups of friends. The location was one block from a Metro stop, and the Metro system was very easy to use (we recommend getting the 10 pass tickets). The apartment was in an overall quiet/residential part of the city which was nice in the evening although we did occasionally wish we were closer to the more popular neighborhoods. Our few small complaints were that the Wifi router didn't reach to the bedrooms and that overall the place could use a color pick me up/paint job! Communication with Barbara was easy, and we were grateful she let us stay a few extra hours past checkout so that we could enjoy as much time as possible in Barcelona!
