Our stay in Alex and Gemma's appartment was fantastic. We were able to explore Barcelona eaisly. Even before we arrived Alex was incontact and any questions we had we quickly answered. We negotiated the airport quicker than expected and was able to follow Alex's instructions and arrived a little earlier, Alex was kind enough to let us in.
Alex's appartment is on the second level but their are not many stairs. Alex carried up one of our big suitcases for us. Once inside we could see the unit was as the pictures describe big, clean and functional. Unfortunately our Spanish is not very good. Lucky for us communication was very easy as Alex had great English. Alex showed us around the appartment. He explained how to use the facilities including WiFi and washing machine. There is everything you need if you wanted to cook.
Alex is very passionate about his hometown and gave us lots of helpful information on how to get around. We used the Metro which is a 5min walk from the front door to get into Barcelona. Alex also gave us tips of good places to eat. He also told us he was just a phone call way if we needed anything which was nice to know.
