This apartment is a great place for visiting Barcelona! We had 6 adults that enjoyed a very comfortable week on vacation. The place is fully furnished, and there was plenty of kitchenware that allowed us to prepare our own meals when we chose to. The air conditioning worked brilliantly and the showers had great pressure. The washing machine inside the apartment allowed us to pack lighter than normal. There is a Condis supermarket right across the street (get gazpacho in the carton and Gofre waffles to keep on hand), and the wonderful Saint Antoni Market 2 minutes walk away where you can get fresh meat, fruits, vegetables, cheese, eggs, etc. There are a few metro stops in walking distance and you are really not far from anything. There are plenty of nice places to eat or drink right around you. To get there from the airport, you can take either the A1 or A2 bus to Gran Villa for only 5.90 Euro and a couple blocks walk. After that, I recommend the 10-trip metro pass as needed. We got the 5-day pass initially, but didn't end up using it enough since we were so close to everything. My only wish is that I could have stayed longer!
