The apartment is in a small suburb of Barcelona, on a relatively lively street. There are several shops, restaurants and bars nearby and it’s a 10 minute stroll to the nearest metro stop “Fontana” which gets you to Place de Catalunya in around 10 minutes. Or you can walk through the lovely tree lined streets in about 40 minutes, passing La Pedrera and Casa Batllo on the way.
The flat has 2 spacious bedrooms, one to the front, note a little evening and early morning street noise if you’re a light sleeper and one to the rear. There is air conditioning in the flat, in the back bedroom and in the lounge, so the front bedroom can be a little warm on hot days unless you leave the air conditioning on all the time.
We liked being out of the central area as we got to see lots more whilst walking to the centre and it was a little more relaxed than the hustle and bustle of central Barcelona. A great stay and would definitely return and recommend to others.
