This was our first experience with Airbnb and it was extremely positive. Marta was a great host - very responsive to communications and helpful, even meeting us at midnight when our plane landed late. The flat itself was exactly as advertised - very clean, spacious and homey with lots of light, as well as being blessedly cool during a hot Barcelona summer. It's not on a major street but it's very close to 2 subway stops and the Passeig De Gracia major shopping street. We even managed to walk to Sagrada Familia in less than 15 minutes. There was a great local café, Cafeteria De Clares, nearby that we thoroughly enjoyed.

Couple of notes: the bedroom opens out into a semi-outdoor space shared by the elevator shaft and other flats, so you may need to sleep with the window closed. As well, it may be better to use the handheld showerhead rather than leaving it up top as it may splash on the floor otherwise.

Thank you Marta for hosting us at your lovely flat!
