Carlos was a great host and his place is really special. The building and the apartment are both lovely, the street, one of the best in El Raval, is just two blocks for Las Ramblas. The apartment is surprisingly large and oozing with Spanish charm plus the kitchen was outfitted with everything we need. While everything was clean- my only wish was that the place was better furnished, I've seen college pads outfitted better, and this fabulous interior really does deserve better.
