Our choice to book Javier’s apartment in Gracia was hands down, the best decision we could have made. You can’t ask for a better location, in my opinion! We are a family of 4, with kids aged 9 and 11. Most everything you need can be found within the square, or within a few blocks. For the 11 days we were there, we shared life with the locals - my kids played soccer with the neighborhood kids and skateboarded around the square, while we sat on a bench or ate tapas at a restaurant terrace nearby watching . It was amazing! Close to two metro stops on the L3 line, getting around town was super easy. And I can’t express how great it was to visit the touristy areas, and then come home to Gracia. The apartment itself had everything we needed to live there comfortably (we cooked most meals and washed clothes there too) and we couldn’t have been happier with our pick to stay here for a trip for Barcelona. Javier even arranged pick up and drop off to the airport. Amazing experience! Thank you Javier for everything!
