Gabriel and his mother, Malena, are well located if you are a walker-they are centrally located near the Alfons X transit stop and to both Park Guell and the Sagrada Familia-15 minutes to SG and Park Guell has a free bus from Alfons X if you buy your ticket access ahead of time. There are plenty of local places to eat nearby-we headed "down hill" for most of them. The apartment is quiet, clean, and both hosts were super helpful!
