This place was in the best location in Barcelona! most places we needed to get to or wanted to see were easily walkable or not very far on the metro, which is a block away! We saw a flamenco show two blocks away, walked the waterfront, walked Las Rambles, etc and then more because of the divine Iocation. Great comfy bead and the balcony is a nice addition. But because this apartment is so close to street level or maybe its because of the echoes off the buildings, there were nights we woke up to locals talking loudly in the alley at midnight and on. So if you're a light sleeper, bring some ear plugs maybe. Great overall stay.
