This spot is right in the heart of Barcelona and easy to reach the beach, shops, El Sagrada Familia, a city bus tour, Las Ramblas, Placa de Catalunya, etc.
There are many options for eating out and buying goods at El Corte Ingles to make a tapas in the apartment.
Be advised that Barcelona is a city that is active at all hours of the day and night. The Orchid apartment is on a small, quaint street, but it can become very noisy at different times of the night.
The hosts are very helpful when contacted. They printed our tickets for El Sagrada Familia tour and provided dinner recommendations for 7 Portes where we had a delicious Paella.
A lovely visit to Barcelona! Adios!
