The location could not be better
Imanol's APARTMENT is first and foremost a fantastic location right on the corner of Placa de Catalunya. It's in the heart of city with easy walking access to most everything in the gothic quarter and the metro is right there as is the airport bus. The location could not be better. We also thought the unit worked perfectly for our family of 6 with everyone getting a bedroom and there was plenty of room for us to spread out and relax when back at the apartment. Overall, it was a great stay!

Very spacious

Beautiful interior design
This is a great location for families or big groups. It is close to the Ramblas and Gothic Quarter. One block away on Carrer de Casp street we found two great local restaurants- Moussol and Casa Carmen. Awesome food and atmosphere away from the tourist crowd. 24hr market and great coffee shops are nearby. Easy and safe location. Beautiful interior design.
-

Location, location, location
Location, location, location. My family of four and our friends family of four- 8 total loved this apartment. We loved the layout for two families. Kids had an area and each set of parents did as well, with room to spare. We appreciated the convenience to the metro stations and also being able to walk to so many fun and beautiful places!! Communications were always responded to quickly and made everything go smoothly.
