Elena is a wonderful person. We had a late at night arrival as well as a late at night departure and Elena went out of her way to accommodate our schedule. Her location was excellent, right next to a large park with a zoo. Lots of activities take place in that park. It was convenient to public transportation (bus & Metro); grocery stores, restaurants and walking distance to many attractions like the Picasso Museum, Arc de Triomf, the beaches, a casino, etc. We were able to go anywhere we wanted to go with ease. She was a gracious and very helpful host, very liberal with her time and help in planning our activities. She never intruded on us but was always available when we needed her. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Barcelona with her. Thank you, Elena.
