Area Description

The Gothic Quarter/Raval area is the heart of Barcelona. The famous pedestrian area of the Ramblas starts at Plaza Catalunya and ends at the Mediterranean Sea, the apt. is located half way down it on a side street. Most major museums and tourist sites are within easy walking distance. Located around the corner from the Liceo Metro stop, this apt. could not be more centrally located - it is an easy 10 minute walk to Plaza Catalunya in one direction and the Mediterranean Sea in the other. Lovely Plaza Sant Agusti is right next door with year-round outdoor dining.

The studio is really charming, very "Romeu and Juliet" indeed... The location is fantastic, in the heart of Barcelona, with a view of the Ramblas from the lovely balcony. More, we feel that the owners really care that we have a nice stay. They provide us usefull information guides of the city, beach towels, a CD player... It's the ideal place for a romantic journey, don't miss it!

*All the Romance of Barcelona*, October 28, 2007
By *Karen* (Lymm, Cheshire, England)
I booked this cute little apartment after a search for a romantic little hideaway for my partner and I to come to for his surprise birthday treat. I couldn't have chosen better! The room was completely central and we were able to go for midnight strolls, explore the city, party till 4.00am and dress up for cava and dinner with ease and return to our cosy room for a rest before our next adventure. The bathroom was perfect, pretty, warm and stylish, whilst the breakfast bar allowed us to have midnight feasts, coffee and snacks and full breakfasts at our own convenience. The bed was clean and fresh, storage space plentiful and the fridge opened with a gift of my first ever bottle of Cava given as a welcome by our lovely host. Flinging open the balcony windows every morning allowed me to look out at the city waking up and hear the chat and bustle that was barely audible when they were closed - very Romeo and Juliet. Wonderful memories.
