The apt. was amazing and true to the listing. Very beautiful views from the terrace. Black out blinds helped us sleep great and cushioned a lot of the city noises. Perfectly centrally located to anywhere you want to go around Barcelona whether by metro, cab or walking. Host extremely helpful with guide book and apt. instructions. Mercat (small grocery) within steps of apt. main entrance was super convenient. Larger grocery only a few blocks away. La Rambla within walking distance also...we even walked to the Christopher Columbus statue at Port Vell and the Gothic quarter. Messaged host to give clearer instructions for apt. building entrance as we let him know we didn't have international calling and the door bell was not working it seemed. The door man isn't always there either. All worked out in the end though with other issues brought to the host's attention. Would definitely stay here again.
