This apartment was the absolute perfect landing place for us (a family of 4) in Barcelona! It is in a delightfully old building, but the apartment itself is modern and stylish and has AC, which was a significant asset. Super comfortable beds. Also, it's in such a fun neighborhood! If you are excited about eating in Barcelona (and you should be), you are within a five minute walk of some of the best eating in the city. Special shoutouts to Quimet & Quimet, La Platilleria, and Tasqueta de Blai. (Blai Street, on the corner, is basically a pintxos mecca.) So much fun! Also, you can walk everywhere else, and the metro is close too, in case you don't feel like walking. Or you can always walk to Parallel and grab a taxi. Our communication with Gian was easy and responsive. (Note to other confused U.S. travelers: there is a drying rack out on the balcony, in case you're wondering what to do when the washer stops. Ha ha ha!) Thank you, Gian. We will hope to come back.
