We were met on our first evening in Barcelona by our host, Oscar, who welcomed us with a bottle of bubbly and a wealth of information of what to do and how to get there in Barcelona. Oscar's English is quite good, which was a great help since my Spanish is quite limited!
The apartment was lovely, clean and well appointed with everything you could need. It is conveniently located to some of the major sites and well within walking distance to the metro.
The only down side is the building is a little noisy in the morning when other residents are getting ready for work or school. Otherwise, the place is perfect!
Oscar and Susana were also very helpful arranging transportation to and from the airport.
I recommend it highly!!
