We would like to share our experience staying at this place. Starting from the location, we must say you could not get any more central place in the city! Catalunya square, which is one of the main and central squares in the city, is only two minutes away from the apartment. Catalunya square has direct access to airport bus, and touristic buses. Through the airport bus you could reach the airport in max half an hour; and through the touristic buses you could grasp a comprehensive overview of the whole city of Barcelona with audio guide.
Catalonya square connects to a number of important and beautiful streets of Barcelona, La Rambla is only one to name. Around Catalunya and the mentioned streets you will see a very live and happy mood everywhere as you will find shops, restaurants and cafe's on any direction you choose! That's only a brief summary of why the place of this apartment is a highlight!
When you arrive on the first day, you are welcomed with a special sparkling wine by Albin, your friendly host. Albin has also thought about your breakfast for tomorrow, tee or coffee and a pack of croissant! Albin then gives you a tour of the house, the perfectly clean bathroom, toilet and kitchen where you can also cook for yourself. In your room which is quite large you have a double-bed, clean bedsheets, two sets of towels, iron, a library with many city guidance books and booklets. He patiently describes you the vast variety of activities which you can do in Barcelona. He has also prepared for you a list of the top restaurants in Barcelona with different range of prices. You can experience the true taste of lovely Spanish food. Albin has always been willing and eager to answer any questions we had about the activities, and has always had good tips for us.
Other than being very clean and tidy, the apartment is very silent, as you have your own area and privacy on the one side of the apartment. Albin lives on the other side with his lovely girlfriend. The apartment has an artistic theme, which we enjoyed a lot. If you are into art, Albin is again the best person to consult, as he has many close artist friends.
We were also blessed to receive a special gift for the new year's eve; a sparkling wine and an amazing chocolate from Barcelona.
If we travel to Barcelona again, this place will definitely be our choice to stay, as we could feel the real Barcelona in the surrounding.
