We loved the location of the apartment. We could not ask for anything more. We did have a bit of a learning curve with the washing machine. Word to the wise - watch a youtube video if you are from the US on how to run a European washer. My only wish is that it had more natural light. It was very spacious and comfortable. Josep was the helpful and kind.
The neighborhood has all you could need and there is a Metro station within walking distance. We felt completely safe, 100%, even at night.
