Joaquin is an excellent host. We were well received and everything was well explained. As we stayed for almost 2 weeks a change of towels was offered. Communication with him is straight forward and always quickly replied to. The location was superb for us. The train station Saint and Plaza Espana with excellent shopping and dining facilities were a mere 10 min walk away and the nearest Metro station 5 minutes. Other good restaurants are in the neighborhood. The apartment is well equipped and can be reached easily by a lift. A Fruit and vegetable store is in the same building below and supermarkets, bakery and other convenient stores are all minutes away from the apartment. For our next visit to Barcelona we definitely consider to stay there again.
