We had a great stay in Silvia's house! The first days we were four, and there was plenty of room for us. Then I stayed on for another week to do some writing, and got both the peace and the walks I needed. There is walking distance (30 min) to sights like the Sagrada Familia and Park Güell, and the metro station is just around the corner. I highly recommend the walk up to El Turo de la Rovira, with a fantastic view of Barcelona. The house is practical, clean and well equipped. Silvia is the best of hosts. We know where to stay the next time we go to Barcelona.
