Anna's place was amazing. Stylish and functional. She thought of everything a guest would need and provided a lot of special touches that you would not expect. There were the essentials like a fully equipped kitchen. A bathroom with plenty of towels, soap, shampoo and conditioner. Comfortable beds with plenty of bedding and pillows, etc. Coffee and tea, etc.
But it was the extras and the thoughtfulness that she puts into her place that blew me away. Champagne and fresh milk in the fridge. Fresh bread and muslix cereal for breakfast. Ear plugs and eye masks by each bed, a laptop computer for use in the apartment, a movie library, a portable lantern for the outdoor deck, bikes for exploring the city and the most extensive homemade guest guide booklet I have ever seen assembled with restaurant suggestions, day hike guides, tourist attractions, detailed information about the apartment and appliances and information about the neighborhood and the city and transportation.
The apartment was in an amazing location right near great tapas restaurants, bars and shops. Very easy to get to and from with easy access to taxis and public transportation.
I didn't get to meet Anna but she had two very friendly women to check me in and get me situated and oriented with the city. They spoke great English and they were very responsive when I messaged.
My only caution is that it is six flights of stairs to her apartment. But that didn't bother me and for your reward of climbing the steps every day you have the top level outdoor terrace with amazing views of Barcelona.
Do yourself a favor and stay here. It was probably the best Airbnb experience I have had.
Highly recommended!
