My family of 4 enjoyed the apartment during our 5 days stay in Barcelona. We arrived Sunday evening and our transfer flight from London was delayed but Joaquin was very kind and met us upon our arrival at the apartment. He also gave us tips on getting around town with the 10 trip discount tickets for subway and bus (great way to safe and get around).
The place is clean and bright, not to mention the convenient location. The Urgell subway entrance is 50 feet from the apartment and there's a great organic grocery store right next door. There were times when we decided to stay in for dinner and the functional kitchen worked out nicely. Don't miss Escriba cafe right across the street. It's a famous bakery with over 108 years history. The original store is along La Rambla but this branch is new and spacious. Check out both stores.
My wife really liked the water pressure in the shower and I highly recommend this apartment.
