This was my 3rd time to Barcelona, and I decided to try out Airbnb over a hotel so that my family can have more room with the added amenities(kitchen, w/d, etc) for our toddler. Our stay was exceptional and exceeded my expectations in every way. Our host greeted us in the apartment at check-in, and paid extra attention to making us comfortable with a crib for our toddler leaving gifts/ toys for her as well. The apartment was in pristine condition with high end furniture, sheets, and kitchenware. The upscale elevator building was private, had a doorman, and very kid-friendly residents. The location was in the heart of Barcelona on Passeig de Garcia with shopping, great restaurants, and taxis readily available at the doorstep. We were able to take a short cab to the beach and other attractions, however everything was in walking distance and it was nice to have the metro stop in front if needed. Overall, just an amazing stay from the quality accommodations to the attentive host. Everything was professional managed and cleaned. I highly recommend this place over staying at a hotel, and will stay here again when returning to Barcelona.
