Silvia's apartment was better than the photos. We stayed for 7 days. Our family has 2 parents and 2 teenagers and there was more than enough room for everyone to have some quiet time. The kitchen was great, living room great and the balcony was amazing. All the bedrooms and bathrooms were great too! The location was perfect for us, 2 minute walk to the bus stop, 2 stops to the subway, 10 minutes to the heart of Barcelona - you could walk easily but it was really hot while we were there so it was nice to get a ride. The beach was a 2-3 minute walk and it was amazing. There is a grocery store in the mall on the next block and lots of great restaurants near her apartment and along the beach. I would highly recommend Silvia and he apartment, we had a wonderful family vacation. Thanks a lot!
