We stayed at The Penthouse 2 nights specifically to visit Sagrada Família, and it was perfectly situated for that being only 2 blocks away. Amazingly, just that short distance was enough to get you out of the heaviest tourist zone surrounding the site and among locals living their daily lives. We loved that! Just outside the apartment there are many excellent restaurants and cafes, and we enjoyed 3 different restaurants within a block during our short stay. The apartment itself was well equipped, clean, stylish, and made efficient use of the space. Both the indoor and outside deck were comfortable and wonderful for relaxing. Albert was easy and responsive with all communications. He even arranged for our taxi back to the airport, which we really appreciated, since my U.S. Android phone wasn't permitted to download the local taxi app. I would definitely consider booking this penthouse apartment on future trips to Barcelona. I only wish our recent stay was not so short!
