BLACK & WHITE, Barcelona

The property sits in a quiet, safe residential area of Poblenou, close to the beachfront (1 km by foot) and well connected by public transport: metro, bus, and tram are all within a few minutes' walk. This position gives direct access to Sagrada Familia (3 km), Port Olimpic (3 km), and the city centre. Barcelona El Prat Airport is 16 km away, accessible via metro/train in about 40 minutes. The neighbourhood offers a wide choice of cafés, bars, and grocery stores (including Cake Shop Ana Quevedo and Merkado 0.5 km away), making it easy to stock up on supplies or dine locally without needing to travel far.

The apartment is laid out as 1 living room, 3 separate bedrooms, and 1 private bathroom with shower and hairdryer. The bedrooms are configured for up to 5 people: one double, one twin, and one single bed (with a sofa bed in the living area for an extra guest). Bedrooms are spacious and the living area includes a seating area with flat-screen TV, dining table, and tea/coffee making facilities. The kitchen is fully equipped with stovetop, oven, refrigerator, kitchenware, and washing machine - practical for self-catering. Air conditioning and heating are available in all rooms. The apartment feels bright and well-maintained, making it a comfortable base for both short stays and longer city breaks.

There is no restaurant, café, or breakfast service within the property itself. For meals, the kitchen is fitted with a stovetop, oven, refrigerator, and cookware, making it easy to prepare food. Grocery deliveries can be arranged for an additional charge. The immediate neighbourhood is well supplied with supermarkets, bakeries (Cake Shop Ana Quevedo at 0.5 km), pizza/kebab takeaways, sports bars, and traditional Spanish restaurants (Can Culleres, La Panchulina, Merkado all within 0.5 km). A welcome drink is provided upon arrival. For a fuller dining experience, the nearby Poblenou streets offer a wide selection of cuisines at various price points.

Leisure options focus on the beach - the closest sandy shore (Mar Bella) is 1 km from the apartment, a 15-minute walk. The property can arrange bicycle rental (for a fee) and offers bookings for walking tours, cultural classes, and live music/performance events (all at an additional charge and some held off-site). The neighbourhood itself is quiet and pleasant for strolls, with several parks nearby. For a day on the water, boating activities are available in the surroundings. There is no pool, gym, or spa on site, making this apartment best suited for guests who prefer self-guided city and beach exploration.

Luggage storage is available if you arrive before 16:00 check-in - simply arrange with the host; the team is responsive and helpful.
