The four of us (2 adults and 2 kids) had a great stay hear during the Gracias Festival. There were lots of decorations and there was so much activity in the streets—music, parades, food and drink. The only thing we didn’t anticipate was that the live music in the adjacent plaza would play until around 2 am every night. That said, the windows were very good at stopping normal street noise.
We were met by friends of Eduard, who was away on vacation himself. They were very friendly and helpful. Eduard was also in touch via WhatsApp to make sure we had everything we needed. And he was kind enough to reserve a taxi for us on the morning of check out that met us at the door.
The neighborhood is really great—narrow streets and loads of restaurants and bars. There are numerous famous Gaudí buildings within walking distance including the Sagrada Familia, Park Guell, and his first and last apartment buildings.
