Xavier's and Anna's place is very close to Diagonal in the neighbourhood of Gracia. It is about as central as you could be, whilst still retaining a residential feeling. We often walked to the beach or marina, or Gothic quarter, but the metro and buses serve very well too. We also walked back from the Camp Nou one evening. Not even Ronaldo could spoil the walk. The flat itself is very stylish, with walls like Heinz tomato soup. We are very grateful.
