Everything about this apartment and Laura’s hospitality were among the best of Airbnb. The location is very central, within walking distance or a short public/private transportation ride to most places you will want to visit in Barcelona. All the essentials like multiple supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries, etc are super close. It’s beautiful to turn the corner and see the Sagrada Familia every time and although it’s a nice and lively area during the day, it’s quiet during sleeping hours. The apartment itself is a great size for a couple or two or a family of 4. It’s not large but very functionally laid out. All the appliances are high quality and work very well. The furniture is well taken care of and the kitchen is very well stocked with good quality items. Laura was able to offer nearby parking at a very reasonable price which was great for us. Overall, her hospitality is what really makes this apartment a fantastic choice. She provides a lot of basics that so many airbnbs fail to offer but that make a huge difference in feeling at home and being comfortable such as extra towels, a lot of cleaning products, very functional but not cluttered set of dishes, glasses etc, dishwashing and laundry detergent so you don’t have to go searching for a full box when you’re only staying a few days to give some examples. This apartment would be my first choice if we return to Barcelona!
