Esmeralda was by far the best AirBnB host I have ever had. She is helpful, responsive, hospitable, friendly and just a wonderful person. The apartment is perfect. The location is ideal - It's cozy and in the heart of Gracia, near two metro stations and tons of restaurants, plazas, cafes and bars. I was a solo traveler and stayed in Esmeralda's apartment for almost 2 weeks - it was a wonderful experience!
