The apartment is on the top of an old elegant building overlooking a large park, which from the roof top terrace appears to be covered in trees. In the evening you can watch the numerous dogs being exercised and people just chilling in the cooler evening air.
The apartment was spotlessly clean and just like being in someone’s home with the little extras like coffee pods, washing tablets and everything needed in a great kitchen. We arrived early but Jepis messaged us as soon as the apartment was ready. The bedrooms, which have plentiful wardrobe space are at the back of the property. The windows allow a cool breeze to blow through the apartment in the afternoon. There are fans in each room also. The lounge has a fantastic selection of guild books in different languages.
The main selling point is the lovely relaxing roof top terrace with its great views looking in- land over the city. There is a table where we had breakfast and evening meals. Several chairs and sun loungers.
Nearby is a large shopping center in an old bull ring which has a supermarket in the basement. Many bars and restaurants can be found in the surrounding streets. We saw many police in all parts of the city and felt safe walking around especially near the apartment at night.
As already said there are bus and tube stops within meters to connect with the airport and the rest of the city. This is a good location to explore Barcelona
