Safety: Excellent. Access locks to building and apartment. Always felt safe in apartment and in the streets around apartment.
Host Communication: Excellent. Juan Jose was proactive in contacting us before, during and as the stay was about to end. We thought that was great. He also arranged a very good value car transfer from the airport for us which we appreciated.
Apartment: Excellent. It is precisely as documented on the site. In fact slightly better. We were a little concerned about the size of the second bedroom from the photos we saw. We had no need to be concerned, second bedroom was spacious and comfortable. Our second concern was whether the apartment would be warm at start of December. It was. The electric radiators work very well, we found we could easily achieve a temperature that was very comfortable.
The best feature of course is the seat on the balcony that looks at the Sagrada Familia. Clearly the wow factor for this place and it did not disappoint. In fact whole of the apartment building is very attractive with its Hogwarts staircase, iron work and fascinating, fully functional, period lift.
Location: Very Good. Close to two supermarkets and two subway stations. So why not a rating of excellent? The reasons was proximity to restaurants. There are many places to eat and drink coffee close to the apartment. But there are not many ( actually none that we found) good places to eat and drink coffee close to the apartment. It is a metro ride to foodie areas.
Overall: Excellent. We have no hesitation in recommending to anyone considering a stay here.
