The host that greeted us was about 30 minutes late, but she as very apologetic and kind about it. There was a cute coffee shop literally next door, so we grabbed some coffee and waited.
The apartment is large and comfortable. Its clean and well kept on the 4th floor. The elevator, like most in these older building is small and rickety. If you have trouble taking stairs, it could be an issue. It wasn’t for us though.
A short 15 min walk will get you to the center of Barcelona. There’s lots of restaurants and shops along the way. We were really happy with our stay here.
