The apartment is very spacious. We were a group of six adults and were very comfortable. It is centrally located and close to all amenities. Maria had thought about everything. Before arriving, she kept in constant communication with us and emailed us with lots of helpful information such as where to eat, what to see, etc., etc.
She greeted us at the front door when we arrived and helped us with our luggage and showed us where everything was. The apartment was beautiful, spacious and very clean with everything that you could want in it. It really was a home away from home and we felt very comfortable. We stayed 10 days in there and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Maria is a perfect host and she is very attentive to every detail. She answered all our questions promptly and was very helpful in suggesting the places to eat, places to visit and how to get around by public transport.
I can't say enough good things about Maria and her kindness. When we left the apartment and got to the airport for our trip back, we realized that we had left a cell phone behind in the apartment. I contacted Maria and told her about it. She went to the apartment and found the cell phone and took it to a hotel that a friend of ours was staying and handed the phone to our friend so that it could be returned to us. Thank you Maria.
I would strongly recommend that if you visit Barcelona and want a beautiful place to stay, make sure that it is Maria's place. You will be very happy that you did.
