Albert's aunt Frances welcomed us into the flat. She is a lovely lady and made us feel very comfortable. She showed us the flat and answered all questions we had. When we wanted to wash clothes she offered washing detergent. She also offered olive oil for our dinner inside the flat.
The best thing about this flat is its location: sitting next to the Poble Sec subway station and only 1 block from bus #46 makes it easier to move around (thanks for the excellent public transportation system) and go to the airport and train station.
There is a good supper market downstairs, and many good restaurants in the neighborhood. We had a comfortable and pleasant stay in Barcelona. We definitely would recommend this host to our friends.
