Keywords: Apartment
Description of the apartment -
· This quiet and comfortable 2 bedroom apartment is on the 6th floor of an 100-year-old modernist building, renovated outside and inside. The floors are still the original colorful mosaic (a different design in every room), and the ceilings are 9 feet high. There is an elevator, air conditioning, central heating, and a full kitchen with granite countertops, dishwasher, pots & pans, dishes, etc. The living area has a dining table and chairs, a leather sofa bed, a 21-inch TV, DVDs and stereo. There is 1 full bathroom with toilet, sink, and half-bathtub with shower.
The building has a roof terrace, with tables and chairs, plenty of sunshine, and views to Sagrada Familia. Please note it is a shared terrace.
Description of location -
· The apartment is located in the beautiful Eixample, halfway between Gaudi's La Pedrera (also known as Casa Milà) on the Passeig de Gracia, and Gaudi's La Sagrada Familia, just a ten-minute walk from either one. Casa Amatller and Casa Batlló are at the same short distance as well. The Eixample district has the most beautiful Art Nouveau architecture in the city dating from the last half of the XIX century.
There are many cafes, restaurants, tapas bars, and shops in the neighborhood also. Almost all buildings in the area are at least 100 years old. The 115-year-old Market of La Concepció, where you can do your grocery shopping in a traditional setting, is just 200 meters from the apartment. This market has fresh meat, produce, and cheeses, similar to the more famous Boqueria market, but less crowded and does not have some of the more exotic things.
The Eixample is recommended as a convenient location to see the different sight around the city, but not as crowded as the Old City. You can get a taste of real local life.
Transportation -
· There is a bus stop (for 8 different bus lines) on the corner right by the apartment that will take you to almost all the places of interest in the city, if you don't feel like walking. The city buses are nice and modern, and run often. The apartment is also less than 5 minutes walking from the metro station of Verdaguer, on both the yellow and blue lines. One stop away is the upscale shopping street, Passeig de Gracia, though you can easily walk there from the apartment. Three stops away is Plaza Catalunya (the very center of the city and also walkable) and the start of Las Ramblas, and the beaches are just five stops away. Four stops away you have the Old Cathedral and the Picasso Museum. There is also a parking garage close to the apartment, although renting a car in Barcelona is not recommended.
About the management -
· We are a family company and we manage our own holiday apartments or furnished homes in three cities: 15 in Barcelona (Spain), 6 in Istanbul (Turkey) and 2 in Dallas (Texas, US) We apply our same high standards in every country.

Dear Marcela, Lauren and Fernando Just to say many thanks for a very pleasant stay in your apartment. We were very comfortable and felt very at home. We have stayed in several holiday apartments and this was the best equipped we have stayed in. You were very accommodating about letting us arrive in the morning and leave in the evening and this made things very much easier for us. If we come back to Barcelona I am sure that we will arrange our accommodation through yourselves. With very best wishes

I would like to take the opportunity to say thank you for use of the apartment it was excellent, comfortable, with good amenities and close to lots of places to visit. Thanks to Marcela for all her good advice. We managed to do most of the things she suggested, including taking our son out for his 21st birthday to one of the fish restaurants on the harbour front. Very good food, very expensive, but well worth it for a celebration. Many thanks
