This was our first visit to Barcelona - Very nice apartment and fantastic location! Our host was very nice and she is very quick to respond to questions. On check in she was kind to share directions with us to different city locations and also had many brochures and maps and other information in the apartment. We didn't spend much time in the apartment because we were busy exploring the city but it is nice and clean and was a fantastic staging area for all of our activities! Highly recommend! Also there are several cafes and markets close by for any needs!
