This apartment is a very convenient location who is interested in immersing themselves in a bit of Barcelona life, specifically the Poble Sec neighborhood. Up the street, there is Montjuïc with its gardens, vistas, and castle. Just around the block, there is a long street of great tapas bars. In particular, I very much enjoyed L'Angolino de Blai. Avinguda del Paral·lel is a few blocks away, and just a few more blocks is La Rambla. The apartment had good light and was very comfortable to stay in - we were there for nearly a week. A washing machine also was helpful, as was a well appointed kitchen.
