We had an excellent holiday thanks to the fact that we chose Jesus's apartment for our stay in Barcelona. Jesus and his wife are wonderful friendly people who are willing to help with everything : transport information,where everything is , how it works , etc.

The meeting was arranged as well . Everything in the apartment matched the description and even surpassed our expectations. The apartment really became our home. Felt that Jesus equips all with the soul : flat is very comfortable , cozy , very good for families. The apartment has enough space so that everyone has their own separate place at the same time have a place to gather as a family, there is a comfortable lounge and dining area.
The house has two terraces, the first is very good for a light breakfast or dinner outdoors ( though we were in January! ), the second - the bottom - with the age-old lemon tree , was a great place , where our little son could even play football, while we were preparing breakfast :) Despite the fact that close to home is the street with public transport , the apartment was always perfect silence and we could hear the birds singing outside. This effect is possible because the house is built like natural's landshaft and flat descends from the mountain , leaving the noise of the city at the entrance. Nothing will not break your dream, of course, if you forget to take on youw wake-up watches :)
Neighborhood: El Coll is a wonderful quiet area, in which , however , has everything you could wish: parks and playgrounds, shops , cafes, restaurants. Just next door is a lovely bakery , the smell of fresh bread from which attracted us in the mornings . Excellent transport links : day and night from anywhere in the city can be reached for 1 euro for person (if you buy a ticket T10) , because right in front of the house there is a bus stop where stops including night bus , and in two steps is metro station .
About the proximity of the Park Guell mentioned in the description and it is absolutely true . At the same time you walk to the park by the top entrance, not main (lower) entrance. So it does not have to climb the hill , and the whole trip going down the mountain and not tiring, even with a little child .
Special thanks Jesús for giving parking for our car. It really helped , given that is quite difficult to find parking in Barcelona or it will not be cheap.
Special thanks to Jesus wife Nina, who was also very friendly and helpful for us. Nina speaks Russian and we had more possibilities for talking:)
We felt what we came to good friends!
