Fantastic Family City Break
Well laid out apartment, perfect size for us as a family of four, well stocked with most things - even dishwasher tabs and detergent. Anything you do need is also simple with a supermarket, bakery and other shops within 2 blocks. The location is within easy walking distance of the arc de triomphe, sagrada familia and just over 15mins from Casa Batllo and Las Ramblas but slightly out from the really busy areas with no noise at night. Anywhere further afield is easy to get to by metro, which is also just a few minutes walk - as are a number of great restaurants to try (which we did!). Chelo herself was extremely helpful when we arrived and all the directions etc worked well with no trouble getting to and from the airport by Taxi - she even dropped us a note to let us know about a bank holiday when shops would be closed! Overall we had a great stay, we were even lucky with the weather, and certainly had no issues with the recent Catalan independence protests at any time of day or night when travelling round Barcelona. We happened to stay over Halloween and one of the other apartments organised and invited our kids to join in with trick or treating - a lovely surprise which they really enjoyed - "truco o trato"! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others thinking about heading over.
