Located in one of our favourite nooks in Barcelona, Cobalt Currant is a cosy retreat that will make enjoyment weatherproof. The minimally furnished living room transitions to a closed up balcony with a bright dining area, but that doesn't mean there's no outdoor space – check out the mini terrace in the front. Due to the structure of the building, the natural light in the communal area isn't ideal, but if you're looking for somewhere immaculate, fun, and central, that this is a great option.

    The kitchen is a bit bare – you'll struggle to prepare an elaborate meal in it
