This is a fantastic apartment, well managed and well presented, comfortable, clean and well appointed. Sandro is a knowledgeable and friendly host, happy to be contacted at any point during our stay, although the local information he had left for us meant that we had no need to ask for any other help. Sandro also met us at the airport and gave us helpful tips for our stay when driving us to the apartment, as well as telling us a bit about the districts we were driving through.

The apartment itself is delightful - some basic supplies were already in the cupboards (tea, coffee, oil...) and the kitchen had all the cooking accoutrements we needed. We also made use of the games in the dresser! The rooms all have natural light, they are a good size and have plenty of storage and good quality linen. We are a family of 5, our children are teenagers, and we found the apartment spacious.

Gracia is a lovely district to meander round - plenty of local interest and no tourist shops! The apartment is within a few minutes walk of all the facilities we needed: a metro station; bakery; mini supermarket; boutique shops; and lots of cafe's/restaurants. We also walked to the Park Guell (quite steep and uphill, but what great views on the way back down!) and down to the centre of Barcelona, so it's well situated for visiting the main attractions.

None of us wanted to leave, and I very much hope we can visit again - thank you Sandro!
