Has any stayed in the part of the Bari Gotic south of Carrer dels Escudellers (street)? It is just up from the Columbus Monument and off to the east of the Ramblas a few blocks. It is an apartment in the Ramblas Building. I read somewhere that the Escudellers street is not safe and RS said that the area "somewhat seedy"~ but would like for other opinions about actual safety for walking. Thanks!

I have not stayed in that specific area, but near it. "Seedy" is a broad term...old, authentic, etc. would also be used to describe the area. I felt safe all over Barcelona in the day and in the night as well. Just did not go down the dark alley of course.
