We had a great time at Echo’s place. We were first hesitant to rent a shared apartment as Echo’s was our first. It was perfect for our first time, there is a long hallway the divides each area and a separate door entry to your room. We had our own washroom, which was small but manageable. The room was cute and cozy. Echo was very friendly and catered to our needs during check in as our train arrived earlier. Their dog Ink was adorable, he didn’t bother us at all, was super quiet even when we came in late at nights. The location was quite far if you walk, but you can definitely take the metro or taxis like us. Btw there is no Uber’s is some areas of Europe but if you hail cab or get the mytaxi app, works just as well. Lots of sites to see in Barcelona, it’s a cool, hip vibe, surprisingly not many people speak English so be prepared for that. Would definitely come back and would definitely recommend Echo’s place!
