We loved staying at Vincent's place! The apartment is super clean and beautiful. He made us feel very at home and offered tons of great advice and tips for the city. The other 2 guest rooms were also occupied during our stay, and everyone was super kind and respectful. The Raval neighborhood is very bohemian, you can find places with only locals and super tourist spots if you want. It's walking distance from pretty much everything and easy public transit to everything else. Fair warning, it is a little sketchy feeling at times, especially late at night. That being said, we rebooked another 3 days after initial stay because we liked the neighborhood so much! Highly recommend this spot!
