The building:
Is a modern eight-story construction with elevator, located in a quite residential area with good services in the neighborhood.
Location:
In the Eixample neighbourhood (the Expansion), whose development occurred in the middle of the 19th century due to the necessity to extend the city. Barcelona had been obliged to conserve its medieval structure because of the prohibition to build outside the city walls, but with the beginning of industrialization and the great density of population the medieval walls collapsed, and the city could expand. Walking distance to the Sagrada Familia Church from architect Antoni Gaudi, the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau from architect Domenech i Montaner and other buildings of the Modernist and Noucentista (Post Art Nouveau) styles, residential or public buildings from well known architects from the time like the Casa de les Punxes on Diagonal Avenue, or Casa Macaya, on Passeig de Sant Joan boulevard, both from architect Josep Puig I Cadafalch. Wide avenues with bike lanes and gardens, nice squares and shopping areas, bars, restaurants will complete the view of this part of the city.
Well connected with buses and metro lines nearby to the other interesting sites of Barcelona, like the Gothic Quarter with the roman monuments, the Liceo Opera House, the Picasso Museum and the famous Ramblas, the beaches, the Montjuïch Mountain with the Miró Foundation, or the Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya and Exhibitions at Caixa Forum building also from architect Josep Puig I Cadafalch.

Very Nice to see you J Hélène (France)
This is the last day of a two weeks holiday – not a second too long.
We join all the superlatives about the apartment, which is nice, good quality, clean and convenient located - walking distance to most places in central Barcelona.
We have visited nearly all attractions; the most astonishing were Camp Nou, Sagrada Familia (very recommendable) remember to queue up at 08:30 to avoid long waiting time, Picasso Museum and Parc Güell.
Don’t miss going to the Font Magica near Plaça d’Espanya, go on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday evening where the beautiful and amazing light and water show takes place.
If you want to go to “the countryside” for a relaxing walk in a park with ponts, gardens in different styles and a maze made of high cypress, take the metro line L3, get off at Mundet and take a short walk up the hill to Parc del Laberint.
It has been two lovely weeks in Barcelona and in the apartment Travessera Barcelona Apart.
Familia Hermansen (Denmark)
We had a nice holiday.
Excellent apartment in a quiet area near the center.
Recommended the park surrounding the Montjuic fountains (at night)
Jos (Holland)
Great apartment! We had a great time!
Ivana, Sunny, Bea, Helen, Marina, et al (Croatia/Germany)
We had a wonderful time in Barcelona! The apartment was cozy and nice. Slept very well every night! No complaints whatsoever.
Summer solstice was awesome! We stayed here from June 20th – June 24th.
All three days were hot and sunny J We will definitely recommend to others! If you are looking for bars with great Guinness on tap go to: - Hogan’s on the Ramblas – Michael Collins next to the park by Sagrada Familia.
Papas bravas is the best tapas dish. (You can find it anywhere)
Sitges beach is awesome and beautiful. It is only like a 45 minute train ride. Just don’t go on the wrong part of the beach! Thank you so much!
Sincerely, Murray’s, Ainan’s, Kenward’s & Miller’s (USA/Ireland)
Thank you for nice, clean house and your hospitality.

We had such a great in Barcelona! The apartment is wonderful, no complaints at all! Thanks and we’ll be back for sure! J
Erik, Zoe, Kemmy, Sam, Andren & Sarah
Barcelona is an amazing city full of so much culture + more interesting + creative art than many places in the world. The Picasso Museum is very educational and worth the visit, even if you are not a fan of Cubism J Needless to say anything, Gaudi will leave you breathless. The bike tour through Ciclo is fun and worth the price. We just recommend going on one of your first days because you will visit the outside of many buildings that you will probably go inside of later in your stay. Celler de Tapas is the best tapas restaurant I found. Enjoy!
Barcelona es muy hermosa. El apartamento es muy bueno J We really enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to return
Hello Hop, I just wanted to say thank you for a lovely place to stay.
The apartment was perfect for our group and we really enjoyed "living" in BCN briefly. Señora Montserrat was wonderful. We hope to return sometime soon! Best, Sera (USA)
Very Nice apartment clean and tidy.
We would recommend to our friends the apartment. Visited the Sagrada Familia, Gothic Cathedral, Miro, Gaudi park. Lovely City. Not enough time to see all. Local bars/Cafes Very friendly. Thank you Montserrat for a really great stay. C.W. UK
