Located in the L'Eixample district of Barcelona, near Av. Diagonal and a 5 minute walk from the Diagonal metro station, this apartment is spacious and modern. The building, doorway and entry are works of art, with Gaudi handles and carved surfaces. There is a small lift to bring bags up to the second floor, where the apartment is located. The apartment has an abundance of air conditioning--I counted 6 separate units. There are numerous grocery stores (24/7 and full service) within 1-2 blocks of the unit. Bread shops, coffee shops, restaurants. I think the apartment is very heavily rented in summer--no spare dates. Thus, the place needed some routine maintenance. Josep is an excellent host--very prompt, very good communication and very friendly.
