Carlos and Reyes are genuinely nice and make you feel welcome and at home. Carlos cooked delicious and varied breakfast that even my picky daughter ate! and was very accomodating with our schedule. We stayed for 5 days and we were mostly alone in the appartment, Reyes and Mauro had gone the second day to visit relatives for a long weekend. My daughter (12) and I felt very secure to be there. On our last day we left very late in the afternoon, well past out check-out time, and Carlos drove us to the train station and helped with the luggage. The room is small but for us it worked out very well. It is clean and quiet the beds are good and sturdy and the room furniture is new. The whole house is very testefully decorated and very spanish! This was the second time for me in Barcelona but staying at Carlos was a full immersion in spanish&catalan culture. We loved our time here and we fully recommend it.
