Just back from Barcelona and stayed at John's flat with my husband, his mum and a dear friend. When we arrived, John welcomed us into his home and we were extremely impressed to find a very comfortable and open living space with room for us all to gather yet also to have our own space. The location is brilliant, we appreciated the lift and took lots of taxis; none were more than 10 euros to get to wherever we were off to in town. We appreciated being asked to help ourselves to beer, bottled water, yogurt, tea and milk as well as all the kitchen amenities as we did eat in more than a few times. The market downstairs is extremely convenient and inexpensive, I even found organic produce there.
