After a week in Barcelona, I can say this is the best location to stay by far. You are down the street from amazing tapas, bars, walking distance to the beach, La Rambla, and lots of the crucial must see spots in the Barri Gotic. It’s also close to the Metro for easy access to La Sagrada Familia and lots of other Gaudí sites, even FCBarcelona’s stadium. While this is a shared space, it felt private and Sam is very kind and accommodating. He gave great recommendations and was easy going. We would love to come back to stay with Sam!
