Enjoyed our time in Barcelona thanks in large part to having such a centrally located flat. Perfect home base for strolling through Gothic quarter, visiting the sites of the area and enjoying good, inexpensive food. It's a very lively, energetic neighborhood, and if visiting during warm months (when windows are open) be sure to bring earplugs for sleeping. Sofia and her mother were great, communicative hosts. And when the fan broke on an especially hot day, Sofia had it replaced immediately.
