Close to the beach
Review Submitted: August 26, 2011
Date of Stay: August 2011
My husband and I and our two small children (aged 5 and 11 months) enjoyed our stay in Barcelona. The flat was roomy enough and they even had a little pack and play set up for our baby in the bedroom. Our 5 year old slept on the sofa (which wasn't as clean as I would have liked and I'm not sure the sofa cover was washed and I know the pillows weren't), but he seemed okay with the sofa.
This flat is only a few blocks from the beach and close enough to walk to the Ramblas (which was did multiple times). The beach is gorgeous. There is a small grocery store nearby, which was convenient. (Restaurants in Barcelona were so much $$. Having a kitchen in the flat was great!) There is a metro stop nearby, which was easy to use. The neighborhood got a little noisy at night due to the game between FCB and Real Madrid, but our kids slept through it. We also LOVED having a washer to wash our clothes. Perfect for our traveling family.
I'd stay here again and I'd recommend it to a friend. (But I'd tell them to maybe wash the blankets themselves before they use them.)
