We were delighted with Xavier's apartment. It is bright and airy with modern stylish furniture, a good bed and a lovely shower room. Marcela came to welcome us. She was delighful! We chatted to her for a while about the apartment and ways of getting about Barcelona. Xavier has thought of everything when it came to equipping the apartment and there were lots of personal touches,too.
On checkout, because Xavier wasn't able to secure us a taxi to the airport with his usual taxi firms due to it being rush hour on Monday morning, he came personally and went to get us a taxi and brought it back to the apartment for us! That was going the extra mile.
