We chose this place because it was big enough (2 bedrooms), had a small balcony and was in an older apartment building - so had the beautiful tile and original window doors and latches. This lovely home did not disappoint! The natural light was great and the neighborhood was so nice. There is a market across the street and the metro is literally around the corner. You can get anywhere in Barcelona so easily! Our host met us there when we arrived by taxi and communicated well. I also appreciated having a washing machine on site since we were there a full week. It was a beautiful week in Barcelona and this place made it extra special !
