The apartment was a perfect spot for our stay. We loved staying away from the busy part of the city and close to the beach. Even though it's cold in November, we went over to the beach almost every day. The sunrises were stunning! It was very nice to be in a quiet neighborhood and felt great to be out of the touristy areas. There is a grocery store just a few blocks away and a delicious bakery on the next block. Fresh croissants are the best!
David was very helpful and showed the apartment and also offered to tell us all about seeing the city. He communicated through the Airnbn app during the week to make sure all was okay. The best thing was the refrigerator was stocked with water, milk, orange juice, water and even butter and jam. There was coffee and some muffins and toasts for the morning. What a nice touch to see a bowl of fresh fruit on the kitchen table. After a long day of travel, it was very nice to not have to worry about those things needed for the morning.
The apartment is in a very quiet area with a balcony and windows that look out onto a park. We couldn't hear any cars or traffic at all.
I will definitely recommend the apartment to others. Even though it's a distance from the main part of the city, the Metro is SO easy to use and we could easily get to all of our destinations. We became Metro experts. What a fantastic transit system. If I return to Barcelona, I would definitely stay here again.
