Description Barcelona Classic: Barcelona

Just 50 metres from the La Rambla thoroughfare, this central apartment is ideal for travellers seeking a stay among the action. While retaining its historic facade, the interior design is minimal and the space lacks natural light – although the plant-filled patio is a nice touch. Some may find the apartment better for a couple than small groups, as the en-suite bathroom means guests three and four will have to intrude. They'd also be sleeping on a sofa bed, which won't suit everyone. But we can't fault the location. Here in the Gothic Quarter, you're only steps away from Barcelona Cathedral and its surrounding shops and restaurants.

Home truths:
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area. Space could be tight with it in use, so we suggest a guest count of two. *This home's bathroom is an en-suite, so guests three and four will have to cut through the bedroom to access it. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance. *This home is lacking in natural light and there isn't a window in the bedroom.
