The apartment is really comfortable, (beds are comfy), well appointed and conveniently located for the metro to the centre of town. 10 minutes to get to the beach and about the same to the fun Rambla of Poblenou for good bars and tapas. Teresa looks after the apartment and will explain everything, as long as your Spanish is good that's fine, so anything you don't understand best Stay in touch with Gabriele. There's the odd rumble of the bus passing by but other than that it is a quiet area. Parking opposite the property is at the moment unrestricted which is a real bonus if you are driving. My only criticism is I think the cleaning fee £40 and service charge are a little high. Otherwise we can't wait to get back to Barcelona!
