Rosa's apartment was a great place for my family and me to stay for our 10-day trip to Barcelona. The neighborhood is teeming with life. There is a grocery store and market half a block from the apartment and restaurants in every direction. The neighborhood had a local vibe, but with all the things the city of Barcelona has to offer. We have a two-year-old and there is a plaza and a playground across the street which makes life easy as a parent. Rosa was a wonderfully welcoming host. There are a lot of bus lines and metro lines to use right outside the apartment to aid in getting around the city for cheap. If you get a chance stay here.
