I was lucky enough to stay in Nuria and Pere's apartment for a month. It was fantastic!
Having lived in Barcelona before, I knew that I wanted to stay clear of the tourist areas and just enjoy a more traditional vacation. It was the perfect location for that. Plenty of local tapas restaurants / bars within walking distance. And it's located nearby public transportation for whenever I felt like venturing out further.
Since I was staying for a month, I also needed to work on occasion while spending my time in the city. I was thrilled to find out just how quiet the neighborhood is. It made getting work done easy and falling asleep at night a breeze. I can say from first hand experience, that is rarely the case in Barcelona.
Other great amenities that I really enjoyed were the high speed internet without interruption as well as an air conditioner that kept the apartment nice and cool. Again, these are features that people do not typically find in Barcelona but really can add to the enjoyment of your stay.
Lastly, both Nuria and Pere were simply fantastic in their communication and accommodation. For example, they went out of their way to assist me when I first arrived in the city. My flight landed at 12am and Pere was still willing to meet me for the check-in at 1am in the morning. Not too many people would do that.
The apartment was great, the hosts were great, and the neighborhood is lovely. I highly recommend Nuria and Pere's apartment!
