Jose's communication was swift and he'll wait for you at the apartment to hand over the key and show you the place when you get there. The apartment is in a really great location in the city. Grocery shops as well as 24h supermarkets are close by. You'll find about three metro stations that are only within about 5 minutes of walking distance. Plaça de Tetuan is just down the street and from there you'll be able to walk to Plaça de Catalunya in only about 15 minutes (or about 5-8 minutes with the cab). We enjoyed our stay.
