This is a great little apartment in a great location, perfect for exploring a great city. Apartment is attractively furnished and extremely well appointed with everything you could need - washer, cleaning supplies, coffee/juice/water/milk to get you started, good internet connection. He even has a plug converter. To help you out, Pere has put together a well done and very useful binder with information about getting around the apartment, the neighborhood and the city.
Neighborhood is off the normal tourist track, which we enjoyed. It is great to see "real" life in a New city. Lots of shops, restaurants, and cafes around including a fantastic market just a couple blocks away. Subway station a few easy blocks up the hill connect you easily to everything in the city. Barcelona really does have fantastic public transportation.
Electronic locks on building and apartment made Check in/out easy. Can't comment on Pere's responsiveness to issues as we had none.
We highly recommend Pere and this unit .
