By far my best experience renting a stay on AirBnB to date. The apartment is better than the photos are able to show, and the details of the space are what really shine. I loved the tile throughout and the radiant heated towel rack in the smaller bathroom. Showers both have great pressure and there are outlets everywhere. Tip: bring a couple European outlet converters if you’re coming from North America, as they’re harder to find in Spain than I thought they would be.
The neighborhood is great and centrally located. Tabor Cafe is very nice and feels like a high end coffee shop, vs the larger more cafeteria type places on the more main streets. Also there’s a great dive bar across the street called Prize Bar where you can catch locals playing live music almost every night.
I felt like everything outside of the general area was a short metro ride, but I also was able to walk to Barceloneta and the Gothic Quarter easily.
I would totally stay in Cyril and Olivia’s place again.
