A brilliant apartment, very light and airy and very comfortably furnished. Everything exactly as photographed and described. Very clean and homely. Amenities are very good standard and easy to use. The instruction books for the appliances were in the kitchen so this meant that for us (non-Europeans) we were able to use the appliance effectively. The location is perfect for exploring all areas of Barcelona. Even tho it is on a busy street it is very quiet as it faces the rear. Located within the same block are some specialty gourmet food shops, a patisserie as well as a small bakery/cafe and around the corner many eating spots. In the heart of Eixample there were beautiful buildings at every turn. We would walk out the front door and no matter which direction there was stunning architecture. Jepis is a welcoming host who was extremely helpful prior to our arrival and his assistance on our arrival was excellent. Nothing seemed too much trouble to him. We have already recommended the apartment to several of our friends who are planning trips to Spain and we would return. We felt as if the apartment was home.
