Maria’s place is perfect for a solo traveler looking to be in the City Center. Perfect location with the Sagrada Família as your backdrop. Metro station and buses are walkable. Barcelona City Tour stop at Sagrada Família made it that much easier. The room had everything I needed and the shared living space made it feel like home and the experience of Spanish style living and culture. The building’s vintage charm added to it. She is a gracious host, very hospitable! Helped with restaurant recommendations, and helped set me up with a return taxi to the airport. She is extremely friendly, helpful and inviting. I will be back in the summer. You cannot beat the price for this location. You will not be disappointed.
