We had a wonderful city break in Barcelona as a family following a cycling holiday up North around Girona. The apartment was just what we needed; our hosts, Jacques & Aline were wonderful, we had excellent contact with them coming up to the stay, & Jacques was there to welcome us & show us the place & the amenities - the tips he gave us for the local area were useful.
The apartment is a great base from which to see the city, it’s location in Poble Sec is ideal, 10-15 minutes walk to any of the central attractions in Barcelona, be they the magic fountain, the Montjuic Park, Colon & the sea front, Las Ramblas or Barri Gotic.
Public transport, either the Metro, Funicular or buses are at the end of the road - couple of minutes walk as are the shops for your daily needs. Two streets down, close enough to walk, but just far away to be disturbed with the noise is the bustling Carrer de Blai with its tapas bars, one of the ‘happening’ places in BCN.
The apartment was ideal for a family of 4. Clean, self contained, it had all the amenities, the 2 air conditioning units made a big difference. Nespresso machine and Netflix were added bonuses, we spent the last part of the day as a family watching something together.
The place lives up to its name. Couldn’t have asked for more!
