The apartment was event better than pictured on the webisite. It is large and airy and as a party of 9 people we felt very comfortable there.

The location is excellent based in the cool El Born area (think Shoreditch of London) it's perfect if you want to be removed from the tourist area of the central square. It is worth noting that you need to be respectful of the neighbours and not make too much noise in the apartment or outside to avoid being fines. If you are part of a hen/stag do I donlt think this is the apartment for you.

There are so many lovely restaurants and bars you don't need to venture far from the apartment - although it would be a shame not too as the rest of Barcelona is so beautiful.

The property was clean and I was grateful that we could check in early at 11am straight from the airport to drop off our bags before we headed out.

Horacio was a fantastic host, his English is perfect and he is very through with his reccommendations. I liked that Horacio sent me suggestions before I even arrived in Barcelona and when we did he went through more on a map.

If it is your first time in Barcelona (asit was mine) I highly reccommend using the bus tour to get a good feel for the city and your bearings. Do not go to the BECool club, it is awful. The Apartment has a rock night on Saturday and was lots of fun and full of happy locals.
