My sweetie and I stayed at Alex's place for 4 nights. The location could not be better if you're looking for a spot to adventure out to all the parts of the city. The apartment itself has all the basics you'll need if you're planning to be out and about for the majority of your stay. No bells or whistles, but has what you need to rest, wash, and touch down. Alex was an excellent communicator and really extended himself to meet at the house a little early to let us in to store luggage. He also gave us a good lay of the land when we got there- pointing us in the right direction with all the food and adventure tips. The elevator worked 95% of the time, but is quite small. Beds were comfortable. There's a nice back balcony that the doors walls open out to, and it was really nice to have the sunlight and fresh air in the apartment. Definitely recommend this apartment for a touch down spot while you're visiting Barcelona. Again though, I would say that location was really great-a real selling point for this place.
