Xavier's apartment is wonderful, exposed brick throughout, well equipped with facilities such as oven/microwave/fridge stove top and washing machine. Comfortable bed. Easy access to a great dining strip only two streets down, further out of the busy streets and hustle of Barcelona but easy enough to walk around to main attractions eg. La Rambla, the main beach is abit of a walk but can easily catch a taxi. Had a wonderful stay, would recommend, Xavier is very knowledgable and able to help out with whatever you need and gives good recommendations for places to go and eat out or visit.
