Honestly, quit looking and book Xavi's place now! This apartment is beautiful, lots of space, incredible location, very central and tons of cool/hip spots all around in Gracia (my favorite neighborhood by far). Xavi and Esther were both so kind and very openly communicative for anything and everything. The big bed is so comfortable. I will say it's a little loud, like you can hear other people in the apartments around you and there's a bit of street noise, but nothing you can't get used to (and just close the bedroom windows to block out some of the street noise). This place is absolutely stellar and next time I come to Barca, I'm checking to see if I can stay here first. Book it! You won't be disappointed.
