Communications with Ana was very clear and efficient. We got easy directions for the Metro followed by a short walk. Marcos, Ana's husband, gave us a quick tour of the place and then pointed out a number of nice things to see using a map of Barcelona, which stayed at the apartment.

The apartment was quiet and comfortable. The neighborhood was safe and had lots of little funky restaurants. There was a small outdoor market a few blocks up Paral.lel with bread, cheese, ham, spices, and other things. Both a market and pharmacy were within a block or two.

During our stay I ran into Ana. She was friendly and gracious.

We used the apartment for breakfast and occasional rests between sightseeing, other than the usual sleeping a washing up. The apartment was perfect for our needs. Terrific!
