APARTMENT: Our 1-week stay in Jepis' flat during April 2013 was great! It's spacious, clean, has comfortable beds, nice bathrooms, fully equipped big kitchen to cook and serve anything you'd like, and has a lot of sunlight going into the master bedroom and dining room/living rooms. It's also got wifi that works mostly in the half of the flat closest to the entryway (mud room, smaller bedroom, kitchen, hallway, and part of the living room). The airbnb pictures of the flat are also very accurate.

LOCATION: The flat is centrally located and within walking distance to so many attractions and restaurants! It's just around the corner from La Rambla, less than 2 blocks away from the Passeig de Gracia metro and Casa Batllo, 4 blocks away from La Pedrera/Casa Mila, and 4 blocks away (less than 10 minute walk) from Placa de Catalunya! We were even able to take a nice, long morning walk to Sagrada Familia! There's also a 24-hour small grocery store called Euro Sol around the corner, and a home supplies store called Servei Estacio (it's like Target/Walmart in the US) a block away---both recommended to us by Jepis. We couldn't have stayed in a better place!

We made a google map of sites and attractions relative to Jepis' flat, so if you want to see how awesome of a location it's in, you can take a look at our google map (http://goo.gl/maps/CbI8L). It's not comprehensive; just lists the main attractions and restaurants that we wanted to visit.

HOST: As for Jepis, he is a wonderful host---incredibly nice and welcoming, very responsive to our questions via e-mail and WhatApp messaging, flexible, punctual, and offered to show us around the city and even pick us up from the airport. He's also thoughtful and generous---I knew I was going to visit La Boqueria to pick up groceries to cook in his kitchen, so before our trip to Barcelona, I asked Jepis if he had a knife, and he said he'd double check. When we arrived, we found 2 new knives for us to use! He went out and bought new ones since he didn't think the ones already in the kitchen would be adequate enough for me. What a thoughtful host! We also had some trouble starting the washing machine, and he responded very quickly and offered to have someone come check it out.

OVERALL: Our stay in Jepis' flat was great. We were the third guests he's rented to, and I'd recommend others to stay there---especially since Jepis was so cool, and it's centrally located to attractions and public transportation.

Thanks again, Jepis!
