Only the best recommendation for this apartment which is placed on the 4th floor. Yes - there is many stairs, but we got rewarded with sunlight and a nice view from the the small balconies. The area is quite with not much traffic. There is plenty of typical good tapas restaurants and a lower number off traditional restaurants, all with affordable and lower prices compared to other parts of Barcelona.
Only 5-10 minutes to the Metro or busses. Lots of small fruit and grocery shops near by.
