Had a great stay. Very tidy and charming AirBnb apartment equipped with everything you need. Simone and Isabel are great hosts and they were always ready with help and good advice when I needed some.
The apartment is in a great location between the residential areas of Gràcia and Sant Gervasi. For me it was the perfect mix of a) quiet and without too many tourists like me :-) and yet, b) close to where the action is.
There are many very good small restaurants and cafes in a circle of less than 5 minutes walking. And there’s really all kinds of good food, from simple tapas / beer bars where the latest soccer game is running on a TV in the corner, to - surprisingly - some really fancy Japanese restaurants.
If you want to go sightseeing: The main streets of bustling hipsterdisctrict Gràcia are less than 5 minutes away. And from there it’s an entertaining walk straight downhill to Passeig de Gràcia, the grand and beautiful shopping boulevard of Barcelona. If you are looking to catch more sights in less time, the apartment is really close to key bus stops and subways, and you’ll get everywhere (Gothic quarter, Sagrada Familia, etc) really fast.
The apartment itself has been decorated by the hosts with a lot of love and many plants and has a very nice, truly individual atmosphere. You’ll quickly find yourself just getting comfortable in one of the big sofas to sit and read a book for awhile.
I can only recommend staying with Isabel and Simone. They are kind and funny, and the place is great. Would absolutely stay there again.
