Maria was out of town when we arrived to check in but her cousin Francesca was available to show us around the apartment. Francesca didn't speak much english but it was not a problem at all. She was delightful showing us the space and making recommendations. Maria had materials all laid out and offered plenty of brochures to get you going if you didn't have many plans to see the city of Barcelona. The space was wonderful. We spend a fair amount of time on the terraces at night and the view was breathtaking. There was a small problem with the time of checkin (the listing says 3pm on the website but Maria informed us that was a mistake and that it was actually 4pm) It was not a problem for us and she has made a note to update that for future guests. It can take about 30 minutes to get to the city center where some attractions are located (Sagrada Familia, Gothic District) but Parc Guell is a 15 minute walk away if you like a workout (it's uphill but there are escalators in some spots). The house is comfortable, all amenities were available and worked properly and I would highly recommend this home to stay at during your visit to Barcelona.
