Location, location, location! Mod's place can not be beat for it's location in the heart of the Gothic Quarter right around the corner from the cathedral. Amazing!! Plus it is sparklingly clean and comfortable. Mod will go above and beyond to help you (like when your cab to the airport goes to the wrong address and he calls the driver and re-routes him for you in his fluent Spanish). He has some particular requests, like opening and closing doors quietly, wiping down the bathroom and kitchen sinks after each use and not talking too loud in your room, (and sitting down to pee, if you're a man!) but honestly it's all worth it to stay so close to the action with someone so familiar with the area and the language (one of 6 he speaks!) Run, don't walk, to Mody's place, and try to book the en suite room if you can!
