Cristina was a great host. She met us in person upon arrival. She gave a thorough overview of the apartment: reviewed the locks, stove, Windows, washing machine, clothes line, patio, elevator, restaraunts, grocery store, public transit, ....... By far the most thorough and explanatory review of any Airbnb we have stayed in. She was a fantastic host.
The property has views from multiple rooms of sagrada familia. Additionally, of the 4 bedrooms, 3 had full doors that opened to a small balcony, about 2 feet in depth. This is ideal for leaving open and walking out on to get an unobstructed view of the cathedral. The apartment was plenty large enough for our family of 5. There is a Starbucks downstairs, metro stop 1.5 blocks away, and a grocery story about 2 blocks away. Cabs are about $5-$10 to take to the Ramblas and the cabbies were waiting for Sagrada Familia fares outside the building so there was no wait.
Would whole heartedly recommend this apartment - great host, easy transportation, great unit, and picturesque location. Oh and I should not forget - it has an elevator which is great when carrying luggage for five.
