Familiar with Barcelona and enjoy this area. Lots of great shopping, cafes, restaurants, etc. The flat is charming with high scale ceilings, lovely floor tile, and beautiful architectural detail. The air conditioning was a nice respite from the hot outdoors. One neighbor was fussy about noise and we are a very quiet group so keep in mind. Also, this area of the city, while high end, is bustling and tends to be on the louder side which I feel is part of being in a big city. Overall, loved the place!
