The location of Sara's place is brilliant, just off Las Rambles, near the metro, with some shops nearby for essentials. Easy journey from the airport by taxi. Plenty of sights within an easy walk and the beach. Very clean and surprisingly large apartment, well appointed kitchen, large hall and dining/sitting room. Rooms comfortable but shower room quite small.
Sara and her husband very helpful, he even came out to help us find a taxi to go back to the airport in the rain !
Will certainly choose again if we go back to Barcelona.
