Kate's place in L'Eixample was the perfect location for the seven of us (all adults) to enjoy Barcelona. Exceptionally well equipped (including a meat slicer for the charcuterie you purchased at the local market!). Plenty of space, well appointed kitchen and lovely front room overlooking the street with two small balconies. The back bedrooms are large and full of light but also have blackout panels should you want them.
The neighborhood is perfectly situated off the main shopping district on Passeig de Gracia and Barcelona is very walkable and cabs are plentiful and inexpensive.
Highly recommend this apartment. We enjoyed the heck out of it and Barcelona!
