Fabulous property in excellent location. Everything you need and more for exploring Barcelona on foot or with easy access to metro. On arrival we were greeted by Darney and provided with the clear information on everything we needed, and Eva checked with us a few times during the stay to make sure all is well. The place itself is comfortable and spacious, our group of 7 people had room to spare. Interior design, furnishing and decorations are creative, tasteful and inviting. There are multiple books throughout the apartment from Fodor's and Rick Stevens tour-guides to large albums explaining the history and modernism art of Barcelona, so you know what to see, and learn about what you saw. Appliances, TV's, internet, bathrooms are all in great working order, and instructions for use were very clear. There is a large supermarket within 2 blocks, and numerous small groceries and bakeries around. We cooked our own breakfast, but there are multiple choices for breakfast, lunch or dinner within a couple of blocks. We were not disappointed in any restaurants recommended by Darney. If I were compelled to find a flaw in this apartment, being a suburbanite, I would probably mention some street noise, however this is a function of being in the center of this vibrant and beautiful city, and that is where you want to be to explore it. Based on our previous experience of renting vacation properties all over the world, this must have been one of our very best picks.
