This is a beautiful apartment and Angeles is a fantastic host. The neighborhood is very quiet and residential, and we definitely enjoyed being away from the busier tourist areas. If you want to be near lots of shopping and nightlife this probably isn't the place for you, but if you enjoy an authentic experience and quiet relaxation, it's perfect. Some highlights for us include the beautiful rooftop terrace, the walkability of the neighborhood, and great restaurants, cafés and parks nearby. It's a short (15 minutes) and steep walk to Park Guëll, which is especially nice early in the morning. Plaça de Molina just a block away has great restaurants. From the Sant Gervasi metro stop it's only about 10 minutes to the Gothic Quarter, so it's really easy to get around the city. This is one of the best Airbnb's my wife and I every stayed in.
