Diego's place is as good as it looks online and he is an excellent host. He met us at the apartment bang on time and showed us around the place. He also gave us the lowdown on local restaurants stores and things to do. The apartment is clean, comfortable, stylish and well appointed. The bed is firm but comfortable, the windows soundproofed and the room is nice and dark so we slept well. The WiFi works well. The area is an old quarter of the city so it has Bohemian charm and it felt and was very safe. It's near Montjuic which is interesting and beautiful and 15 mins walk to Las Rambles. There are 2 Metro stations nearby. The city itself is fascinating, fun and lively. There are so many places to eat to suit all you fancy. Actually, El Sortidor square has some excellent food and bars if you feel like eating nearby. If you fancy a place with character rather than a hotel room box then you won't be disappointed.
