ONE DOUBLE BEDROOM IN A SHARED FLAT. Cozy newly decorated and comfortable room with double bed 140 cm in a shared apartment. The room is quiet and faces a balcony, 20 minutes walk from the beach and from the borough of Poblenou. The Diagonal Mar shopping center is 15 minutes walk and so are Forum and the Blau Museu. The flat has a modern kitchen with a dishwasher. In the living room, there is a table and a sofa and a big new flatscreen television. The bathroom has been modernized just recently. The flat has fast internet. The living room opens up on a big balcony from where you can enjoy the view of the Tibidabo and you can have a drink, enjoy breakfast and admire the sunset. Bed sheets and towels are included. Happy to send a video or more pics. Supermarkets, shops, and local markets are all very close. The L2 and L4 metro lines are less than 10 minutes away. The Bus stop (H12 bus) stops just in front of the building's portal.
I am a very friendly person and I will be at my guest's disposal as I live in the flat. I will provide all information on transport and especially on what to visit and what means of transport to use to enjoy this fantastic city I am helpful and friendly.
The area is very quiet and full of cafeterias, small restaurants, and supermarkets. The flat is in a quiet building with a lift.
