9.6/10 Exceptional! (358 reviews)

Very nice apartment and great service. Excellent location to stay in Barcelona which is close to shopping and walking to Placa de Catalyna and Las Ramblas. Convenient to subway to get around the city easily and taxi station for the airport. The apartment is very central in the city, so it is noisy with traffic, so bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Overall, it’s a great location for easy access and safe area. Nice cafe on the corner below for a morning coffee to start the day. Very comfortable for a family of 5 adults for 3 nights.
