The location of Daniela's place was perfect for seeing Barcelona. There are grocery stores, pharmacies, bakeries, restaurants, beauty shops, a bank and even a barbar shop within one and a half blocks. The two main metro lines for most all tourist attractions are 3 and 4 blocks away. The unit is neat, clean and quiet. It has all the essentials you might need, including a dishwasher. It has a very large private balcony, and on the tenth floor ( top floor) a view of the city. We couldn't have found a better place for a home base for visiting Barcelona. Daniela is really a sweetie and very accommodating.
