Cosy and practically furnished, this apartment is a great base for couples or solo travellers. While there’s not much space in the living area, especially when the sofa bed’s in use, it’s comfortable enough for lounging between activities in your itinerary. It's worth noting that there are thirteen stairs to climb to reach the en-suite bedroom and while towels are provided, you’ll need to bring your own toiletries. Poble Sec metro station is on your doorstep and if you fancy stretching your legs, the Gothic Quarter is a few blocks away.
