There is so much to like about Arina's place. The apartment is quiet, spacious and comfortable with beautiful old tile floors, high ceilings, lots of natural light, and a large living/dining area perfect for a group to congregate. The location is excellent, on a quiet block in Sant Antoni just steps away from the Poble Sec subway stop. There are small grocery stores, bakeries, and cafes galore within close walking distance. For those traveling with young kids, as we did, you'll find several playgrounds just a block away. Tickets, the famed Ferra Adria restaurant, is also one block away -- if you can score a reservation. Although the description doesn't mention it, bear in mind that Ariana's apartment is on the top floor. It's about 100 steps up from the ground floor. The elevator was out of service when we arrived and departed, so we lugged our bags up and down the stairs. Also note that Arina uses a company, You Stylish, to manage this apartment. A prompt but slightly harried You Stylish employee checked us in and was available by phone during our stay. Her information about the building is limited (i.e. she didn't know when the elevator would be fixed, because she doesn't communicate with the building's super.)
