This pad in Sants is a quieter spot to enjoy Barcelona, though it's within easy walking distance of Sants Estació station and Plaça de Sants metro. It’s a minimal but practical space with a sofa for sinking into with your holiday read, a balcony for sipping your morning coffee and a private rooftop terrace for sun-soaking and alfresco dining. The terrace is located a level above the apartment, with separate access, so you’ll need to climb some stairs – but it's worth it for the rooftop views. When you’re ready to explore, grab a bocadillo and stroll around the nearby Parc de l'Espanya Industrial or Parc Joan Miró before hopping on the metro to adventure further afield.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a free cot and high chair. These must be requested in advance. *Parking in Barcelona can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. Barcelona's main train station Sants Estació and Plaça de Sants metro station are a short walk away. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *Your host asks that you respect the neighbours and keep noise to a minimum between 10pm and 9am. Bookings from groups of young people (under 25 years old) and parties aren't allowed here.
