Let me start off by saying that Mario is an amazing host. My flight got in much later than expect and he was very flexible about accommodating the time and meeting me promptly when I arrived. The apartment was perfect! Exactly as pictured and described. The neighbor is great, because you're able to stay out of the main touristy areas, but are within a 5 min walk to middle of the action. The apartment is convenient to several markets and tasty restaurant. The apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The bed and sofa are both super cozy and comfy for the lazy days in the apartment or the afternoon nap. I am definitely staying here again when I am in BCN.
