Melissa was unavailable so we were greeted at the door by Maria Ella who gave us the keys and showed us around the wonderful apartment. It was more spacious than I imagined and was nicely situated not far from the Sagrada Familia the famous church in Barcelona and also a subway line that would get you to most of what was to be seen in town. It was on a relatively quiet street and the apartment faces away with a courtyard so the noise of the city is almost unnoticeable. Small market was just next door, nice restaurant just across the street, the best cupcakes I have ever eaten near the park less than 50 meters away and a nice little breakfast and pastry place a little further than that. It is an idea place to spend some time exploring Barcelona. Two large bathrooms a nice bonus especially if you have several guests and easily sleeps 4 + without feeling cramped. Walking distance to many of the attractions if you give yourself some time, if not the metro, taxis are all readily available and not expensive. I recommend their place which is on the 4th floor but has an elevator to get you to where you need to go if needed. Don't hesitate to stay here.
