Susa made me feel welcome even before I left New York, and she was most gracious throughout our stay. Her apartment is charming, up among the rooftops of Barcelona, on a quiet street lined with so many trees you can't even see the street for the foliage -- like living above lovely clouds of leaves -- and yet only moments away from a supermarket, a hardware store, an all-night grocery, the metro, a beautiful park, and, of course, the magnificent Plaza de Espana. The neighborhood is a friendly place and "non-hectic", even despite its nearness to the Plaza. Susa and we happened to meet entirely by chance at a neighborhood taverna on our second night, and we enjoyed a friendly and relaxed chat with her and her brother there. I have given her five stars for absolutely EVERYTHING, and I have absolutely MEANT it. I would recommend Susa's place to anyone seeking comfortable, convenient, and affordable lodging in Barcelona with a perfectly lovely hostess. We had a GREAT time!!!!!
