The apartment has a very good location - in a well-developed district of EIXAMPLE, with its characteristic urban style and charm. Living there, we felt like locals, absorbing the atmosphere and spirit of real Barcelona that no hotel could provide. Though no-touristic, this area does not look remote – big avenues and squares, full of people, light, sounds and motion of the big vibrant city are close nearby.
A perfect base to live and explore the city - two metro stations in the walking distance. Lots of restaurants and tapas bars of all varieties nearby (special thanks to Alex for his selection of those). Lots of illustrated books and guides about Barcelona in the living room.
The building is typical for this neighborhood - built in early XX century, with big clean entrance hall and elevator. Solid, respectable neighbors. Good sound isolation. For some, the street below may be noisy, but the windows are sound-proof too. A small balcony overlooking the street.
The apartment is freshly renovated and modern. Nice stylish design, furnished and decorated with good taste in every detail (even live flowers!), fully equipped with everything one may need. Very comfortable beds. Two bedrooms (perfect for families with children).
Alex is a true superhost – welcoming, attentive and caring. He met us at the entrance, kindly let us in, although we arrived early, gave detailed and exhaustive description of the flat and the neighborhood. During our stay he kept in touch, always ready to help.
We are fully satisfied with our choice. This apartment made our vacations in Barcelona easy, comfortable and exiting.
