My girlfriend and I stayed in Lydia’s apartment for 5 months, and we can honestly say that it’s been the best decision we’ve ever made. Words cannot describe the hospitality, flexibility and kindness of Lydia as a hostess. During our stay, she has been very accommodating, easy-going, and quick to both respond and to get things fixed in case this was needed.
The apartment itself is also amazing. It’s so easy to feel at home in the apartment, and there’s just an abundance of supplies, articles, kitchenware etc. In short: everything you need to be comfortable. The apartment is equipped with a lovely balcony from which you have a beautiful view of the city. Everything is also very clean and tidy. Moreover, the shower has great water pressure.
During winter time, it may get a bit chilly since the balcony doors are quite old, but luckily the A/C together with an electric radiator and a Dyson heater will heat the apartment up in no time, if needed.
The apartment is located in the vibrant Poble Sec-area very close to Carrer de Blai with a plethora of tapas restaurants and bars. Many other great restaurants and bars are also close by as well as a Metro-station and the beautiful Montjuic-mountain.
We could go on and on with positive things to say about the apartment, but the bottom line is: if you need a place to stay in Barcelona, Lydia’s apartment is the place to book. Without a doubt.
