Marc's space is truly a very large room with a grand window and a beautiful tiled floor. It is situated, just steps from the Plaça Reial, which is always elegant and usually lively. The Ramblas is just beyond there. Nevertheless, the room is comfortable and quiet. The shared bathroom and kitchen were fine. We particularly appreciated the in home washer and dryer. This made traveling with only carry-on luggage possible. The steps to the top floor will not be for everyone. We grew to appreciate the exercise. The stairs' worn bricks and wood reminded us that we were in the historic Barri Gòtic of Barcelona. This space is a great value in one of the most interesting parts of a very beautiful city.
