This is a rare example of pictures doing the apartment justice, on the pictures Victor's apartment looks great, and it ACTUALLY is. Very clean and modern, and it, in our opinion, is how an AirBnb should be, we had everything we needed on the apartment, it was not an empty apartment barely furnished to be rented out but a complete, modern house. It is right next to Sagrada Familia, a must see in Barcelona, you can use the church's towers as guide to the apartment. You have several markets close by, where you can get food and necessities and a very nice bakery next door to the building, it is nice to be able to get fresh bread for breakfast right there. If going out for eating I would recommend the La Ramba Catulina area, it is about a 15 minute walk from the apartment but has way more variety and better options. If you are too sensitive to noise have in mind that the apartment is at a busy street, not an issue for us but something to keep in mind. Victor personally is a great host, sent us a very complete information package and gave us several suggestions on how to tour the city, what to see and what not and also money saving tips.
