Beautiful apartment on a lovely quiet street in Gracia. Alex was a great host, he stayed and chatted with us after we arrived and was full of great recommendations for food both in the area and the city centre (even though we were late). He went to great lengths to make sure we had an adapter for our plugs so we didn't have to buy one. The apartment was really clean and Alex left us more than enough towels and extra blankets, showed us how to work the heating and even had 2 local beers in the fridge for us when we arrived! Diagonal metro is about five minutes walk away so the city centre is easily accessible. And there is a lift which is handy! 10/10 for both the apartment and for Alex as a host!
