The apartment is in a bustling and lively area of Barcelona, close to many interesting sites, restaurants, and bars. There are many small markets nearby for groceries and a great sandwich shop called Bo De B right at the end of the street.

Elizabeth and Jacob were very helpful and responsive to any questions. When I first checked in, Jacob took extra time to review the area on a map with me, and help me figure out where I needed to go for my conference the next day.

I didn't spend much time in the apartment since I was constantly exploring the city or attending a conference. When I was there, I found the apartment comfortable and it had most everything I needed.

The only real drawback was the lack of a clothes dryer. There is a clothes line to hang dry clothes (a norm in Barcelona). Jacob mentioned that the Airbnb site didn't allow them to individually check washer/dryer. (they were a group) That being said, this didn't hinder my positive experience with the apartment or with Jacob and Elizabeth.

If you are looking for a place to rest between your exploration of the city, I would certainly recommend this place and the hosts!
