I spent three nights at Xavier's apartment in the Poble Sec neighbourhood in Barcelona and I enjoyed it a lot! The area is great with a ton of great bars/restaurants around. The apartment is in a quiet Plaza with cozy cafes and wonderful atmosphere. You can easily walk to La Rambla (about 10 minutes). The apartment itself is nice, clean and quite spacious (we were two but 4 could work).

Xavier was nice and helpful so that made the stay easy.
