First time using Airbnb and it was a very pleasant experience. Mario was very responsive, he had someone greet us at the apartment and provided us with the keys and Wifi password. The apartment was exactly how it was presented on the listing. We had a full kitchen and laundry which was very convenient. The apartment is ideally located near the beach, 15 minute walk to the Picasso museum, 10 minutes to the Ramblas and Boqueria market. It took us 30 minutes to walk to the Sagrada Familial (Gaudi's Cathedral). The second floor bedroom is soundproof and is very quiet, I can't say the same for the downstairs bedroom because it has a window into the corridor between the buildings. The city is alive all night and you can definitely hear the noise from the street, but that's to be expected in Barcelona. Mario even arranged taxis to the airport for us.
