Juan Carlos and Nina were wonderful at answering questions and giving advice. They left an 'instruction guide' for us that was particularly helpful when my wife got sick - a doctor came right to the apartment. We especially enjoyed the ease of access to the city and walked most of the time to the gothic quarter or to the Gaudi homes Casa Batlló and Casa Mila. I am a runner and this was also a great place to run and easy to get to the coastal paths for a long run. Overall, I highly recommend Juan Carlos and Nina's apartment!!
