Wonderful apartment and location. Right in the heart of the vibrant shopping area - close enough to las ramblas but far enough away to feel comfortable we were not going to be pick pocketed. Only 1-2 blocks away from the metro stop. We did not feel threatened to walk late at night. Apartment has an elevator which is a major plus if you have lots of bags. Washer/dryer is also nice to have. We used the air conditioner even during November. Overall great apartment and great location.
