I definitely recommend staying at Betina's place! This was our first visit to Barcelona and we wanted to stay in the Gràcia neighborhood. Although it is a small apartment (a little smaller than the pictures show), there's still plenty of room for a couple when it's mostly just for sleeping. It's quiet, cozy, and had everything we needed for our stay. Betina was very friendly and was there to greet us and give us recommendations. She was also easy to contact when necessary. As other reviewers have mentioned, the bed is very firm (we usually like a firm mattress but this one seemed especially firm). If you want to stay in Gràcia, away from the busy central streets, Betina's place is a good find!
