Pilar welcomed us with open arms to her beautiful apartment in Barcelona. A bottle of cava was chilling in the fridge as well as welcome chocolates. The apartment is immaculate, all the beds were made up for us and as someone else mentioned, the towels were more luxurious than anything we have at home!
An entrance to Park Guell is just opposite as are numerous stores. The bakery is just around the corner. The walk to the metro is not for the faint hearted.
Having lived in capital cities before, the one thing I found incredible here was that all noise in the apartment block stopped at 22h00 on the dot!
I would definitely rent this apartment from Pilar again.
