My husband I had never tried Airbnb before. We have always stayed in Spa hotels. This was our first experience and I can say that it was truly exceptional. The pictures do not do the apartment justice. This is a beautiful Art Nouveau style apartment with all the conveniences. It is unique and interesting and located in a perfect area. Lots of restaurant choices and easy access to the metro and tourist areas. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are spacious. Sean and his family are the perfect hosts. They had snacks waiting for us upon arrival and toured us through the house with a commentary on its history. A family of architects and artists, passionate about the history of the building and happy to offer suggestions to make your stay exceptional. I felt like I have known them my entire life! We will definitely be back and highly recommend this apartment to anyone who wants to experience the "real" Barcelona! I would give this more than 5 stars if I could!!!
