First off: We would stay here again.
Deisi's place was just as advertised. It was comfortable and well equipped.
Deisi was very accommodating and helpful.
She speaks very good english and was a great communicator.
The location can not be beat. It was a few blocks from 2 different metro stations and right on a bus line.
It was walking distance to Sagrada Familia.
Between the metro and the bus, we were able to easily get everywhere we wanted to go.
There is a small passeig (a green space down the middle of the boulevard) outside the apartment. With grass, trees, benches and playgrounds for children. This is clearly a family oriented neighborhood.
There are multiple grocery stores near by, several restaurants, bakeries, cafes and a great local fresh market
with great seafood, produce, cheeses etc. (Think of La Boqueria market, but smaller and without all
the tourists).
Despite everything being close by, it was relatively quiet: no loud bars nearby.
2 things to note:
There are about 10 stairs to reach the elevator. The shower is in a tub with a slightly awkward shower entrance: It has a high tub wall.
These are no problem at all if you are healthy. But if you have mobility issues, it might be tricky.
