Fernando and Alejandro are such beautiful hosts and should be running a boutique hotel. The apartment was immaculate as we're the snow white sheets and towels. Both F and A were so helpful with tapas / restaurant and super market recommendations and helped us pre-purchase tickets to Sagrada Familia which meant we avoided the long queues and walked straight in after scanning the bar codes on our tickets. The apartment is perfectly located one block from the Urgell Metro station giving access to all Barcelona in the up and coming Sant Antoni area. It is very close to the Mercat Sant Antoni, a beautiful iron and glass covered market that is currently being completely renovated. Food speciality stores and including Jamon and wine shops are all around

The care and attention and local knowledge (and excellent English) that Fernando and Alejandro show their guests is worthy of a fine hotel. The breakfast 'welcome pack' was a nice touch. The apartment is lovely and I thoroughly recommend it to anyone visiting Barcelona. It is perfect for 4 people.
