Iga's apartment in Poble Sec could not be better located for anyone familiar with the neighborhood. Easy walking distance to many great restaurants and bars, several metro stations. The apartment itself is well equipped and has gone through a nice renovation. While not luxurious, everything is functional and practical and clean. Also, it is only on 2 flights of stairs, which if you've stayed in a Barcelona apartment before, is pretty nice. Often you will find yourself on the 3rd or 4th floor, but remember in Spain they count floors from zero plus baixo. So that could easily be 5 or 6 flights.
