David was a wonderful host- very responsive and helpful before and throughout our visit. The apartment was a great base for our family’s visit to Barcelona. We were able to walk or take the metro everywhere we wanted to go. The apartment is near, but not immediately in the packed tourist area, which we preferred. It feels a bit like a neighborhood in transition with people from lots of different cultures around. It was a bit noisy at night (that’s Spanish city life- not the apartment!) and we felt very safe throughout our visit. The air conditioning and clothes washer made a big difference for us, and the apartment was very clean. We would recommend David’s apartment!
