Eric’s flat was really awesome. Between us combined, we’ve stayed in many AirBnBs before but so far Eric trumps them all with the little touches, and ticks all the boxes for us. The welcome packs containing bath, toilet, laundry and kitchen amenities were super great to get us sorted the moment we arrived (especially when we were prepared to just park our suitcases and head out for groceries and stuff - at least this time, we could settle in for a bit. Thanks for that, Eric!).
The bedrooms, living spaces, kitchen and the yard were very comfortable and spacious. We really felt at home (especially on days when we had to stay in a little longer to finish up some leftover work! The wifi worked great for this).
We’re also happy to note that the flat came with a smart tv too so that we could hook up our fav Netflix, Amazon, and Spotify lists!
Location-wise, the flat is close to grocery stores and restaurants while the metro is just a couple of blocks away - to be honest, we didn’t really bother with it since we could walk to all the sights anyway (well except for Park Guell - unless you’re really fit, and have loads of time on your hands, take a cab or a bus! We didn’t and boy, it was quite a hike! haha 🤪).
As a host, Eric was very responsive and friendly and made sure that we settled in fine and check-in/check-out was very easy too. He also shared with us some tips on where to go, what to eat etc which was useful indeed. We wished we could have met him in person.
All in, Barcelona was really a wonderful trip for us made especially so because we got to come “home” to a nice flat to rest each evening... if and when we come back to Barcelona, we’ll definitely look him up again. Thanks so much for hosting us, Eric!
