I would highly recommend Alex's apartment! It was a clean, well appointed and in a great location. My husband and I were in Barcelona with my daughter and her husband, and we enjoyed each having our own bedroom and bathroom. The outdoor patio was a plus, and we appreciated the washing machine and outdoor clothesline, as we had been traveling for a couple of weeks already! We loved the local feel of Poble Sec, enjoying an outdoor festival one day and many of the cafes and bakery within walking distance of the apartment. We would absolutely return to this apartment if we ever are fortunate enough to be in Barcelona again. It was one of the best places we stayed on our trip.
