Clean, comfortable, and relatively large home. Perfect home base for a larger group who want to explore all of Barcelona but sleep peacefully. Unfortunately we could not meet Emile but her friend met us at the apartment and gave us an excellent overview, as well as local bars, restaurants and markets. She also tipped us toward the best beaches and routes for making it downtown.
At the most it could take up to 1 hour on the Metro to reach the southern parts of Barceloneta, but the Sagrada Familia is very close, and the heart of the city is really only 30 min. An outstanding location given how quiet and local the neighborhood is.
The house itself was really well-supplied including guide maps, cooking supplies, linens, towels, washer, Mokapot, and a bottle of wine to greet us on arrival. Overall an outstanding experience!!
