We had a great few days staying in Alex’s apartment and highly recommend it for anyone visiting Barcelona.

On arrival Alex spent time guiding us through a map of the city, and a guidebook he had kindly prepared for guests. We found this exceptionally useful for getting our bearings, and owing to Alex’s recommendations we ended up visiting places we would not have otherwise found, such as the excellent La Pepita restaurant a few blocks from the apartment.

The apartment itself is situated in a fantastic location a couple of blocks from the Sagrada Familia, and a very short walk from the Metro. The area was quiet and felt very safe at night

The apartment was beautifully clean inside, with bright modern décor, comfy living spaces, and space enough for a small family to spend a happy few days. Alex made us feel completely at home, and it was good to know such a friendly and helpful person was close at hand if there had have been any problems with the apartment.
