I have been to Barcelona twice before and Rocafort is now my favourite location. The vibe of the area is simply amazing, from the local restaurant downstairs to the markets near by. Easy to get to different places as the Metro is on the doorstep and taxis are easily accessible. If you like walking then I suggest exploring as my friends and I discovered food strips near by.
Both the cab driver and Andrea warned us about being a 'typical' tourist and to be vigilant but during our stay we felt safe and felt like we were at home, with locals being pretty friendly.
Andrea is an amazing host, she deserves all superlatives. Great communication before and during the trip. She gave us an itinerary that we could follow and offered great tips on local delicacies. She went above and beyond to help us feel comfortable.
Definitely a 5* stay!!!
