This rental was perfect for us, located just a couple of blocks from the Arc de Triomf and a 10-15 minute walk to El Born where we had great meals at Elsa y Fred, Bar del Pla and others. While we mostly walked, there was a metro stop a block away and taxis cruised the area constantly. The apartment was clean, well equipped and quite comfortable. We had two couples (plus a third couple for a few nights) and everybody enjoyed the rental tremendously. The Santa Caterina Market is great, and it’s close by for picking up cheese, ham and fruit, and while La Boqueria over on La Rambla is much bigger, it’s generally full of tourists with selfie sticks - not shoppers looking for dinner. We took in a performance at Palau de la Música one night, again just a short walk. Another plus - there is a small Super Mercat right across the street with a big stock of cold Cavas! All in all, this was a great place for us to stay and I highly recommend the apartment!
