Fabulous host and lovely top floor apartment with all modern amenities.

We stayed over the Easter weekend 2015 and had a wonderful time exploring Barcelona from this well placed location. Ana is an extremely helpful and thoughtful host, the apartment has a good feeling and is well designed with everything you would need for a short or long stay.

On public transport the apartment is an easy 45-60mins from El Prat Airport on the airport bus and metro (6 stops with 1 change), and 90-110mins from Girona Airport on the airport bus and then metro (4 stops with 1 change Estacio del Nord via Arc de Triomf to Diagonal). A 10 trip metro/bus pass can be purchased for €9 (and can be used for 2 people), and an airport bus ticket Barcelona to Girona Airport is €16 one-way or €25 return per person.

From the apartment walk 1 minute to Placa de la Vila de Gracia, a traditional Spanish square with some nice local restaurants, cafes and bars. 2 minutes walk from the apartment are two medium size supermarkets, Consum Basic and Supercor on Carrer Gran de Gracia 25 and 29, offer everything you would want.

The nearest Metro (Diagonal) is 2 minutes walk via Carrer de Jesus to the Apartment. Trains leave every few minutes to the city centre and Diagonal to Catalunya Stations takes about 6 minutes and puts you in the city centre. Alternately you can walk to most major tourist attractions from the apartment in 15-45 minutes, the walk from the apartment down Passeig de Gracia and Carrer de Pau Claris are both really enjoyable walks with plenty of cafes for breakfast, gelato/delicatessen stores, restaurants, bars and a host of high street and designer retail stores.

Overall this is a fantastic apartment for a weekend city break or longer stay. Highly recommended!

Thank you Ana for your hospitality and a very enjoyable stay in Barcelona. Un abrazo! :-)
