Phil greeted us warmly and made check-in very easy. He went through everything we needed to know about the home, including the two patios, three bedrooms with adjoining baths, the heating system, and kitchen. Overall, the apartment is just terrific for being in the heart of Gracia, with relatively large bedrooms, bathrooms, living area, kitchen, and two separate outdoor patios. It was very clean, and most of the space, including the two back bedrooms, was well shielded from the noise from the street. The only problem is that the front bedroom is exposed to noise from a neighboring staircase and to noise from the street, which makes it less usable than the other two bedrooms. Overall, however, the apartment makes for a comfortable stay in Barcelona.
