AMAZING! Manel was an incredible host. The apartment was exactly as described. Beds were both very comfortable with foam mattresses. The walk from the central plaza/ subway stop area was less than 10 minutes and felt safe and easy. There were numerous small grocery spots on the block for water, fruit, snacks, and other travel pit stops. For a first trip to Barcelona, we found everything we needed and could get to all the places we wanted to see!
A special compliment to Manuel’s hosting. He welcomed us personally with a map of the city, suggestions for restaurants and less obvious sights, and a generally friendly welcome. We loved being his guests.
