Maria and Enric’s apartment is quite simply outstanding and a first-rate base for a trip to Catalunya. Their communication from booking to arrival and check-out was clear and prompt. They met us when we arrived and their welcome was so very personal, from the fresh fruit in a bowl on the table and a guided tour of the apartment and it’s amenities, to marking up a map for us to pinpoint the best cafes and restaurants, the bike shop, supermarkets and more.
We were in Girona for a five day bike riding holiday and the apartment was perfect. It’s location just over the river from the historic old town means it’s less than five minutes’ walk to the heart of Girona’s old town, cafes, shops, restaurants and historic sites.
The building has been beautifully renovated and although the apartment we stayed in is on the third floor, their attention to making it wheelchair friendly means that whether you have a wheelchair, pram or - in our case - bikes, it’s got plenty of space, ramped access from the street and a lift to get you up there.
The two bike stands in the apartment and the fully stocked laundry cupboard means it’s ideal for cyclists who need to wash their gear after a day or two of riding.
We absolutely loved the apartment and it will be our very first call if we get the chance to come back to Girona.
Our hosts were available should we have needed them (Enric lives upstairs and we had their phone numbers) but as it was, we didn’t, and they gave us the space, checking in on email only on our final evening to ask if we needed any help with anything around our departure.
