Gabriele is the perfect host and always replied promptly to my messages and questions. The apartment was just as described. The aforementioned noise at night is a typical Barcelona problem and not just for this flat - just ensure to bring earplugs! It was very clean and perfect for our stay. The beds were very comfortable - I never had such great mattresses before! The apartment is located close to two Metro stations, thus it is very easy to get everywhere in the amazing City of Barcelona. We were welcomed by Gabriele's assistant Theresa who was very nice and even waited for us quite long as our flight got delayed. She showed us around the flat and as she is living just next door we felt that we could always contact her in case of a problem. Theresa even allowed us to stay a little bit longer in the apartment on the day of our departure. All in all: We had a great time and would definitely book this apartment again!
