It was such a pleasant surprise to arrive to an apartment that feels like home...cozy sun-room and patio, high ceilings, rooms nicely decorated, comfortable and very clean. Nothing was missing in the kitchen or bathrooms. Best of all, the location, with parking across the street, small shops and cafes and within walking distance to "Ramblas" area and the subway. I didn't have the pleasure to meet Julia because my sister from Mexico arrived the day before, but she only had nice things to say about her. She gave us great tips to restaurants and returned our calls when we needed help. I believe this is the best way to experience Barcelona and highly recommend this old-time charm apartment with patio and host Julia...¡Gracias por todas tus atenciones!
