The Eixample neighborhood is an excellent location... Close to
Casa Batllo, shopping, Las Ramblas... Great restaurants. The place is cozy, but intelligently appointed, well-made and handsome. Several markets are nearby for groceries to make breakfast.
Sara happened to be out of town, but had a lovely friend meet us and orient us. She also made herself available for our entire stay. We had asked Sara whether we could have a friend spend one night, which she happily agreed to; when the fold-out couch was unavailable she kindly provided a very comfortable air bed which our friend slept well on. A terrific apartment in a great location with an excellent host.
