We stayed in Marta and Artur's flat over Christmas and we were made very welcome indeed; a beautiful Poinsettia and excellent wine were waiting for us when we arrived! The flat is precisely as it is described, including the staggeringly good views of Sagrada Familia (a must see - but book your tickets online to avoid the queues). We ate our Christmas lunch on the terrace, which was super.

Artur met us and showed us around and had plenty of excellent advice about the area. Sagrada Familia is not right in the centre of Barcelona, but it is much quieter, and the metro and bus connections within moments of the flat can get you all over the city with little effort.
