Maria is a wonderful and caring host. She goes out of her way to make sure you have everything you need.
The apartment was exactly as described. Very charming, roomy, with air conditioning in every room.
The neighborhood has the charms of local areas of Barcelona with very good restaurants and a number of supermarkets nearby. It is less touristic therefore the restaurants are much better than the ones set up as tourist traps in La Ramblas, etc.
Maria also has great suggestions about where to eat and what to do.

Overall, we had a very pleasant stay and we appreciate Maria's gracious efforts. I highly recommend this place.
