First, it was a great location and very nice calm clean and safe not touristic area. You can reach cleaner beach than touristic “barceloneta” in 15 min by walk, enjoying the views of alleys and local people living their lives. The water is cleaner at that beach and not sooo much tourists. Many stores, there is big supermarket in that area. It’s very easy to get to main stations where are major sightseeings. To reach barceloneta and la rambla is like 20-25 min by subway. Very good location. Second, the hospitality of the owner is on point. He tries to do his best. The bed is very comfortable, clean bed linen, clean bathroom, clean kitchen. There are plenty of space in the closet and shelves. The apartment is very nice. You have soap, toilet paper, towel, place in the fridge to put your own food. By the way it was secure to leave your personal stuff (even money) in your room. I lived there 7 days. It’s calm in the night, no noise. In the morning as well) Greg helps you with how to reach places around. He is very nice person. I didn’t have any problem at all during my time living there. I liked it and would stay there again if i would go.
