This apartment had a simple elegance that was everything we'd want from a European apartment. The decor was minimalist but impressive. Our host was communicative and made herself available for questions throughout our stay. The location is central and east to get around from (right by the Arc metro stop).
Also, she has excellent taste! We had a short time to spend at this location before leaving town and ended up going to 4 places on her recommendation list: 1) great pourover coffee at Skye Coffee, 2) memorable dinner at Fismuler (recommend the shrimp caparccio and the lentil dish), 3) Parking Pizza/Parking Pita (the best pizza we've ever had honestly), and 4) Proper BCN for our last dinner (breathtaking desserts!)
