Fantastic location, just two blocks from the Sagrada Familia. The neighborhood felt safe even walking around at night, and everything you need while traveling (bus stops, restaurants, a supermarket) is within a five-minute walk. You’ll need to take the bus to get to the city center like Plaça de Catalunya, but the stop is literally a one-minute walk away, so it was no problem at all.
The apartment was spotless and well stocked with everything we needed. A big plus: they offer housekeeping, which you don’t get with vacation rentals. They came in and made up the beds, kitchen, and bathroom so everything looked just like it did at check-in.
The pre-arrival instructions were clear, so check-in went smoothly. Since we booked a 2-bedroom apartment, we had to pick up our keys at the office, and it took us a moment to find it. That was only because our taxi driver dropped us off a bit far away, so just make sure you get dropped off at the right spot and you’ll be fine.
If I’m ever back in Barcelona, I’d absolutely stay here again!
