We were given a warm welcome by Guillermo's brother Ignacio and shown around the apartment in person. It's exactly as described and we were very pleased. The beach it is near was very clean and vibrant enough. It's a part of Barcelona I'd never explored before and it seemed a nice community - particularly the boulevard down the road.

I really liked the host was very contactable throughout the stay and some good dining recommendations too.

I am being lazy so I copied this next bit from a previous review but I couldn't phrase it any differently anyway (!), entirely agree...

The neighbourhood was quiet but only a few blocks to bars and restaurants and the beach and main tourist areas still easily assessable on foot or by metro, which is so easy to navigate. Felt very safe walking around at night. Would definitely recommend it and wouldn't hesitate staying there again.
