Alexs place is unreal. The views of Barcelona are incredible from the huge terrace. Alex stocked us up before we arrived so we had wine and all basics in the fridge which was really helpful while we were finding our feet. The apartment itself is stunning! Extra stylish and beautifully decorated/presented.
Had all the amenities we needed including Netflix for the kids as well as the pool obviously.
The apartment is up an extremely high hill so makesure your car can do this and that you are able to walk up steep hills physically. This for us only made jumping inthe pool more enjoyable after a walk from the metro station. The metro station is ten minutes walk down the hill and takes only 20 minutes to reach camp neu, gracia, sagrada famila and ramblas. Poblenou, our favourite beach is around 40 mins via the green and yellow metro line.
Alex was a great host and we checked In late (after 12) and were greeted by his friend who showed us round, how everything works etc. Alex was only a WhatsApp away should you need him for anything and was extremely friendly.
We loved the stay and I must say would stay high up in the mountains again as the city looks better from up there while sipping cocktails from the terrace.
