Nadia's apartment is wonderful! Really convenient location, very comfortable, secure - and staying in a real Barcelona home in the historic part of town was part of the adventure! If you've ever been curious about the secret doorways in tiny European streets, this is a great way to come inside :).
Our family of six adults shared the apartment for two days before leaving on a cruise. It was a perfect base for exploring: easy walking distance through the medieval and Roman parts of the city, and conveniently close to the excellent metro system. We walked to dinner at the beach one night, and took the metro back - even a jet-lagged tourist could figure it out! We felt totally safe going out at night, and were grateful for the little coffee shop on the corner in the morning.
We will definitely visit Barcelona again, and when we do, we'd love to stay at Nadia's place!
