This is an outstanding apartment located in an outstanding location in the heart of Barcelona. I had just arrived from Paris where the apartment I stayed in was noisy and I was low on sleep. Not the case with this apartment - the bedroom is internal to the unit making it dark and whisper quiet. The balcony opens into a small, quiet, private courtyard making this an ideal place to focus and rest amid the hustle and bustle of the city. I enjoy coming to Barcelona and would definitely make this my top choice when I return!
