It is very conveniently located by 2 metro lines that run along major stops in Barcelona. The apartment had all the basic necessities and was very clean. As a little bonus, the water pressure was good. A variety of local grocery stores, convenience stores and really good tapa restaurants. The only downside is that the walls are thin and you can basically hear everything going on outside. We noticed during the weekdays, the neighbourhood is quiet at night, but during the weekends, it can get pretty loud past midnight. Overall, the apartment was good, and the hosts were very kind and responsive and would recommend.
