Super convenient to everything in Barcelona. 15 minute walk to Casa Batlló, 10 minutes to Barcelona Cathedral, 15 minutes to Picasso Museum, and so on. Out the front door, hang a left, then a right at the end of the block and you are at the top of La Rambla to join the must do stroll. Same directions also get you to the Plaça de Catalunya metro station which is a major stop and transfer point. From there all Barcelona is available to you. Out the front door turn right instead,and down the major street to find Universitat metro for other options. Should you need a taxi, this apartment is on the same block as a number of hotels guaranteeing taxis are available to you to head to the dock if necessary or wherever you need to go. While you’re in the hub of the city, the apartment is in the back of the building so it’s very quiet. Outside patio allows you to have a meal or glass of wine after a full day of sight seeing. Elevator on the main floor means no schlepping luggage up narrow stairs.
Our host Jordi is a super host and it’s easy to see why. Excellent communication, met us at the front door as soon as we arrived. Sat down with us in the apartment with 2 maps of Barcelona, reviewed where all the sights were in relation to the apartment then also listed suggested restaraunts both near the apartments as well as near the sights. (we went to 3 of his recommendations, all excellent). When we decided we wanted to do laundry, he had a couple of suggestions for either wash and fold or laundromat.
Quiet, convenient, comfortable, with a great host. We loved it.
