Very sweet hosting couple. Tomás and Ella are very friendly and non intrusive. They gave us a list of local places, all within a 5-10 min walk. There’s so many things to do here that we only got around to half of them. Try to do as many of their recommendations as possible, because every single one of them was amazing.
The room we booked is set up for people that just need a place to sleep, get ready, and go out on the town. There’s no TV and no window to the outside. This felt claustrophobic at first, but ended up being fine as we stayed outside more, which is the whole point of being in Barcelona. The apartment seemed very secure with the doors locked to the unit, but they rent 2 rooms on air bnb, so it’s best to bring a padlock for the outside of your room when you’re out.
It’s in a very lively and photogenic area, day and night, so be prepared for crowds from 9am-4am. The tourists will probably assume you’re a local when you step out the front door and lock up, so don’t feel bad if you 🤷🏼‍♂️ when they ask you for directions.
