The apartment is really nice, in a modern country house style. It was for our family of 5 people very spacious. There are markets in the surroundings so it was perfect if you need to buy some food etc. Arc de triomphe is also close, 5 min by foot. Further approx 10 -15min you will reach plaça de catalunya and the famous street in the city center la rambla. Great city and really nice place to stay!
