This is a gem away from the bustle. It is a nice family neighborhood with many restaurants and markets to choose from. After a busy day exploring Barcelona it was nice to come home to a quieter atmosphere. You can walk to most of the main attractions or transportation is easy. The flat is spacious and we were comfortable. We were greeted by our hostess in a warm friendly manner and she gave us many ideas for our visit. She also has a nice guide to help you locate restaurants, etc. in the city. Wonderful place to rest your head.
