This apartment is right in the middle of everything. It's right across the street from the Casa Batlló, only a short walk to the old Gothic Quarter and a quick taxi ride to anything else you'd like to do in the city. The street is Barcelona's version of the Champs-Élysées with designer shopping spread up and down the blocks. Only a short walk over to the next block is Las Ramblas, where you can eat, drink and enjoy the nightlife of Barcelona until the wee hours.
Inside, the rooms are very large. The decor is serene in grey and white, and we found every amenity we needed. We had four adults, but the apartment could easily accommodate two more couples. There are two small elevators in the building, a doorman, and access to all public transport right outside the door. Although the exterior is being refurbished, there was no interruption for us at all. Despite the activity on the street, the space was very quiet. Joseph was a great host who answered every question promptly and efficiently via email and text. His team was there for us whenever we needed anyone. Although we never met him in person, we certainly enjoyed the wine, chocolate and cava he provided.
We will be back!
