Description Rambla Mornings: Barcelona

In this cosy apartment, original vaulted terracotta ceilings arch over the living room, lending the kind of warmth you can't manufacture – and French doors in the bedroom mean your first view of the day is Barcelona itself. It's the ideal base for families and friends, especially if you plan to spend most of your time out and about. You're just a stone's throw from the Goya Theatre, while the Cathedral of Barcelona is a twenty-minute stroll, La Rambla a fifteen-minute walk, and the legendary Mercat de la Boqueria just ten minutes on foot. This is about as central as it gets.

Home truths:
* Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
* The Juliet balconies add a nice touch, but they aren't large enough to sit out on – and the views aren't the most interesting.
* You won't need a car in Barcelona. Instead of driving, we suggest exploring on foot or taking advantage of nearby public transport. Multiple metro stations are within walking distance.
