I had the great pleasure of staying at Clara and Pep's apartment for 13 nights (March 1-14, 2017). Communication with Clara and Pep before and during my stay was excellent, and they even helped me plan several day trips out of Barcelona. Pep showed me around the apartment, which has everything needed for a short or long stay, including a well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and washing machine. The shower was excellent, and had great water pressure. The apartment is located on the 5th floor, but only one short walk up from the 4th (the elevator only goes to the 4th floor). Security is excellent. I loved the neighbourhood; although the apartment was very close to one of Barcelona's major tourist stops (Sagrada Familia) it is still away from the throngs of tourists, and located in an area populated mostly by locals, with lots of great bakeries, restaurants and grocery stores. The apartment is also located near or on several bus and subway routes, and located across the street from one of the hop on, hop off stops (I highly recommend the hop on hop off ... it whisks you easily and quickly around the city to the major sites). Barcelona is a beautiful and friendly city with lots to see and do, and Clara and Pep's apartment will be a wonderful base to explore all the city has to offer. Thank you very much, Clara and Pep ... see you next year!
