I’ll add my voice to the many reviews - if you’re in doubt about staying here because of the location, absolutely don’t be. The apartment is gorgeous and very well equipped. The terrace and views are even better than the photos and have made our experience in Barcelona so memorable. The sunsets and sunrises in particular were magic. We love walking so ended up doing most of our traveling on foot but the subway station is only a couple of minutes away and was very straightforward. Manuel was a great host, very informative and on hand if we needed anything. My only regret is that we stayed in January so couldn’t take full advantage of the sun loungers!!
