We had a pleasant stay in this amazing city. The apartment is a comfortable walking distance (sometimes less than 20 minutes) to many of the sites we wanted to see: Casa Batllo, Casa Mila, Palau Musica, La Rambla and more. We bought a T10 pass each for the metro and busses and used them to get to Plaça Espanya (then walked to Montjuic, MNAC, Olympic stadium, Magic Fountain, Botanical Gardens, Joan Miró museum and more), La Sagrada Familia and Parc Güell. When we arrived, we took a taxi from the airport to the apartment (31 euros) but when I left I walked to Plaça Catalunya to catch the bus to the airport (5.90 euros). There’s a grocery store a few steps away and others nearby. There’s a dog park across the street but I was only bothered one time by a dog barking at 4a.m. The window in the back bedroom opens to a sort of air shaft. These two things wouldn’t deter me from staying here again but I mention it to inform. The place was very clean. In fact, we stayed for a week and it was cleaned for us mid-stay. Maria Cruz is a great host and very responsive. They made us feel very welcome. Thank you.
