Maria and Eduard were fantastic hosts. They were very prompt with answering any questions before, during and after our stay. They even supplied us with some basic staples and holiday snacks such as water, orange juice, cava and coca!

The apartment was exactly as described. It was very cozy and spacious enough for 3 adults. It was located just out of "old town" BCN so you did not get all of the late night city noise, but very much within walking distance to everything unless you prefer the local metro or train option which was 2 blocks away. The building has a keyed entry door with stairs and an elevator to the various apartments within. We all felt very safe and had no issues during our visit.

Eduard stayed at the apartment until we arrived (a little late due to some flight delays) and gave us a map and marked out some key items like grocery stores, public transportation and a few good places to eat.

There are plenty of kitchen utensils to cook with if you get tired of eating out and extra linens for those cooler nights. They even have a nifty little washing machine which looked like a robot to us at first, but we managed just fine with a load or two during our stay (and the instructions provided by Maria).

All in all, it was a fantastic vacation with this home away from home. It was everything we had hoped and the kind and generous hosts were the perfect start to a wonderful trip.
