Sophia’s place was a perfect home base for our 5 day visit to Barcelona. The price was fair for a location that was far enough from the action to be quiet, but close enough to walk to when we wanted. There were many suitable restaurants and amenities literally outside the door.
Sophia’s sister met us at the apartment and was very friendly and helpful, and fluent in Spanish, English and French.
The apartment was spacious with three separate bedrooms and high ceilings. It was nicely furnished with modern décor and the kitchen and bathroom were well stocked. We appreciated the separate dressing room, with plenty of space for hanging clothes, etc.
The layout was slightly odd with long hallways between the living room, kitchen and bathroom, and despite the large kitchen, there was not much room to move between the appliances.
During our stay, there were renovations outside that made it a little difficult to access the outdoor washing machine and drying line, but this is likely not the norm.
All in all, a great choice in a decent neighbourhood that we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others.
