This was a really nice apartment. Very clean and very comfortable. The location was within 5-10 minutes walk to a metro station where several of the main metro lines converge, so it was very very easy to get to places using the Metro. Barcelona is a city to discover on foot too and the location was perfect to walk to many important Barcelona streets and attractions. There are also several bakeries, coffee shops, small fresh fruit and vegetable stores and markets. Just around the block, you can buy fresh bread, croissants etc each morning for your breakfast, and pick up the items you need when you go back to the apartment at night to make your supper. So easy. The street was very quiet and we slept very well each night.
Ricard shared a lot of information about Barcelona - and he was very helpful to recommend how to get around and helped us get taxis when necessary. And he was available when we needed to contact him.
