This apartment was perfect for our stay in Barcelona. Great to be able to wash our clothes in the middle of our trip with the washing machine (washer only but you can hang clothes and they will be dry after a few hours and dryers are just across the street). Perfect location, close enough to the metro stops that we needed. Restaurants, supermarkets and bakeshops also close by. Area feels safe, even at night so feel free to come home late. =)
