This was my first time in Barcelona and I was impressed by the location. I felt safe and cozy in the neighborhood. I was about 10-15mins away walking distance from “La Sagrada Familia”. The apartment had a safe which I gladly used. I went with my 3 friends each one of us had our own bed and the space was roomy enough to have something to eat at the dinner table in the living room. I’m not familiar with Barcelona’s geographic’s so i do not know what neighborhood is popular among the locals but for me this neighborhood was good for me.
