I had a pleasant stay at Javier's place. The room is as pictured. The bed is comfortable; the room and the private bathroom are very clean and tidy; plenty of linen and towels. The rest of the house amenities made the stay very convenient: washer, iron, fully equipped kitchen, etc. The apartment is very central, less than 3 minutes walk to the closest metro station that can take you to pretty much everywhere in Barcelona. Javier is very kind and respectful. He likes things orderly, so as long as you pay attention and keep open communication, you will have a pleasant stay. The only thing that surprised me was that the room can only lock from inside; once you leave the room, you cannot lock the door. Though a bit surprising, I was not too bothered by it. Overall, I recommend this lovely place.
