We spent 9 days in Barcelona. Lola contacted me the week before we were to arrive which gave me comfort that we were expected. A couple of days before, I asked for the best way to arrive from the airport. Lola gave me the info and she directed me to contact her friend, Joe, when we got in the Aerobus. Joe was waiting for us outside the apartment and he was a welcome sight in an unknown city. He brought us up to the apartment, oriented us and gave us his recommendations of where we should spend our time. He also gave us a walking tour around the neighborhood to ensure we knew where to go for essentials and more. The apartment is just as it looks. We ate most meals out but the kitchen seemed reasonably equipped for cooking. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms clean, apartment was fresh-smelling and well-kept. We loved the neighborhood / area. The most comforting part of staying here was knowing that Joe was on the other end of Whatsapp if we had a question. He was very responsive and empathetic. Highly recommend this airbnb (and we're very particular)!
