Arina's place is as per all the reviews. It's nice, clean, without a lot of bells and whistles, but has a simple, modern, mimimalist elegance. It is about a 15 min. Walk from placa Catalunya, which we were able to do with our luggage, strollers and kids. Supermarket is right outside. Girona metro station is a 2 minute walk. And Sagrada and passaig de gracia are also within walking distance. Alina is very good in communication and helps with any questions and early check in.
