What a perfect flat! Clean and comfortable, warm in winter, excellent neighborhood full of pleasant squares with cafes and restaurants. Just steps from a bakery, supermarkets, even a Decathlon. An easy walk to the metro, but also possible to go by foot almost everywhere if you are a good walker (we racked up 18,000 and 19,000 steps). The flat was very pleasant and it was possible to make simple meals in the evenings in the kitchen (Miriam provided salt when we asked). Shower was great, and it was the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. The staircase is very narrow but there is a tiny lift, so one person could travel up with the carry-ons. You do hear noises from the neighboring flats, almost as if they are in the room with you, but luckily our neighbors were mostly quiet. One extra special surprise was that a previous guest had left a copy of the Rick Steves Guide to Barcelona – excellent tips for walks! We put it back in the drawer. Thanks!
