Eixample
L’Antiga Esquerra de l’Eixample
If you live here, you share a modernista flat with ceilings worth looking up at, ten quiet minutes from almost everything.
Between the university buildings and Hospital Clínic. Wide pavements, quiet at night, an older resident base than Gràcia. The flats are large enough that a four- or five-person share is normal, which is what makes the room price work.
Solid, grown-up, extremely well connected. Big modernista flats with high ceilings, shared by students who pool rent to reach them.
