Brilliant Barcelona Location
A very comfortable, modern apartment well appointed and equipped. The rental agency office is one block away offering convenient check in (English speaking, very helpful staff with extended office hours). The proximity of the rental office allows any issue in the apartment to be addressed very promptly. We reported that we found the flooring in the shower to be slippery and they immediately provided a stack of extra hand towels we could use as mats for the shower floor. A notice is posted inside the apartment with very clear instructions in English for handling a medical emergency (comforting information for older travelers like us!). The building has an elevator, but you must be able to navigate a few stairs to get to it. Despite being on a busy corner, we were rarely disturbed by any street noise when trying to sleep. The location is excellent for walking to many notable attractions, and has easy access to public transportation and taxi services. Often taxis are waiting in front of this building as a major hotel is just across the street. The rental office has a list of recommended restaurants. All that we tried were excellent. Our favorite daily location was the Villa Bakery just around the corner. Wonderful pastries, sandwiches and coffees and delightful, welcoming staff. Our favorite grocery store was Ametller Origen located in the first block of Roger Lluria across Gran Via. We absolutely loved staying here!
