Very central, could walk to the beach and to the main areas of Barcelona. Metro was a 2 minute walk from the apartment. The room was lovely, bed was very comfortable. We stayed in room #1, you could hear street noise however this was not an issue for us, we didn't mind the noise. Apartment was lovely- everything we needed was supplied. Xavier was very kind and helpful also. Would 100% recommend this place if you are thinking of staying in Barcelona.
