We were met at the door and greeted most warmly by Maria's husband who guided us around the apartment. He also gave us lots of information about events, restaurants and places of interest. The apartment was fabulous and exactly as pictured. It was very spacious and spotlessly clean with four terraces giving wonderful views of Barcelona. Maria left a welcome pack in the fridge which was greatly appreciated. The apartment was ideally situated, Metro stations nearby and the centre a pleasant walk away. The bathrooms were fabulous.Whenever we visit Barcelona again Maria's apartment will be where we choose to stay. We met Maria and both she and her husband are delightful.
