The apartment is exactly as pictured. It is a very charming and nicely lit apartment. The view of the Sagrada Familia is a bit obscured by buildings but you can see it from the apartment, though it wouldn't be your best photo opportunity. The area is very close to a metro and the church. There are also restaurants nearby. We quite enjoyed our stay here. If four are staying here you will have to use the couch sofa, so there won't be as much privacy, so keep that in mind. But we didn't really mind it. The place was very neat and clean and felt very comfortable. The hosts were also great and gave us a lot of maps and suggestions for things to do, places to visit and local restaurants.
