Furnished room in a 9-person shared flat in Ciutat Vella

Ciutat Vella is the old town: the Gothic Quarter, El Born, El Raval and Barceloneta. Everything is walkable, the beach is close and metro L1, L3 and L4 run through it.

Buildings are old, flats are often smaller and lifts are not a given. It is the busiest district for tourism and nightlife, so check the street and the floor carefully if you need quiet.

Barcelona packs ten districts into a compact, walkable city between the sea and Collserola hills. Metro, buses, trams and FGC trains reach almost everywhere within 30 minutes.

Medium-term furnished rentals (1–11 months) are common for people relocating; long-term unfurnished leases follow Spain's tenancy law (LAU). Expect a deposit of one or two months and agency fees paid by the landlord.
