We really enjoyed our stay in Ivan's apartment. The kitchen was well-equipped, which we appreciated, since we like to cook many meals for ourselves when we travel. There is ample sunlight in the morning, and the apartment is bright and airy. I especially loved having morning coffee and an evening glass of wine on the balcony. Because the apartment is on the top floor, it is very quiet. The only drawback is the apartment's location in the city. While the Gracia neighborhood is within walking distance, reaching the main downtown area requires a metro ride (though the metro is only about a 10-minute walk from the apartment). If you're in the city for more than a couple days, these metro fees can add up pretty quickly.
