Merce, our host, was most charming and welcoming. Nothing was impossible for her and our every query and need was attended to virtually immediately. The overall apartment is smaller than it looks in pictures but still spacious for a family of six to relax and enjoy in. The neighbourhood is very clean and friendly with a convenience store near the entrance and a large supermarket, a minutes' walk away! Sagrada Familia a stone's throw away too! An ideal location to visit the sites and sounds of the city. Would certainly be my first choice when we come visit Barcelona again!
