it is located in a great residential area. there are lots of shops and restaurants near this home. I love Tiramisu and Onna coffee near the house. Also there is a market in 5 min distance. it is not as big as Boqueria market. But you can buy various fruits, Jamon, and etc there.I went there every morning and had breakfast in Panet. it is a bit far from the tourist area -Rambles street though. by walk, it will take about 30 mins. but there are several Metro stations within 10 mins distance. only 2 or 3 stops away. I love to walk to Rambles because I can enjoy Casa Mila and Casa Batllo in the middle of the way. You can find easily benches near the buildings. I used to order coffees and breads, and sit in a benches. and enjoyed Gaudi's masterpieces as long as I wanted.
a couple of things I want to note are, the shower booth. it is small as mentioned in other review. I and my wife are not big size, my wife wears XS size, and I do M-L size. However, we felt hard to enter to and exit from the shower booth. IMO, it is aboi]ut 1 ~2 sqft. the second thing is that you may need to bring own shampoo, soaps and etc, or buy them before you need. There is a good size of grocery store, Sorli Discau, just in a min distance.
