Fantastic apartment in the best location. The apartment had everything we needed for our one week stay in Barca. Located at the top of Gracia - it is very easy to get around town by foot or train. But you are definitely located out of the hustle and bustle of the touristy areas in town. The apartment is on the ground floor of a suburban street so there is plenty of street noise (cars, motorcycles, people). Not an issue for us at all, but it definitely is not silent. Federico was a great host who made sure we had everything we needed. The air conditioner was great to cool down the place after some hot Barcelona days.
