Guestbook
Tricia. July 2007 This apartment is in a superb location!! easy access into old and new areas of Barcelona. The zone is wonderful, 10 minutes walking from the Ramblas, Catalunya Plaza or the temple of the Sagrada Familia, in addition to many buses and underground. It is brand new and totally equipped. The interesting thing is how quiet it is, since it is open to yard and not to the street (my husband need total silent to sleep, he could not stand even the tiniest noise!). Good value for your money! We will stay again, strongly recommended, no doubt.
Martin Backman. November 2007 Very good apartment with a nice decoration and everything that we need to even cook our meals there. Located on a central zone of Barcelona (we walked from there to la Sagrada Familia, Placa Catalunya, Ramblas, etc). I think it's a nice choice if you want to visit Barcelona.
