Fernando is a great host and his apartment is in a quiet neighborhood. It is a great location if you don’t want to walk out to a sea of tourists. It is a 15 minute walk to many great attractions and restaurants. Public transportation is easily accessible as well. We loved the little balcony and really appreciated that he left coffee, juice, milk, and bread for us. Additionally, he was generous enough to let us drop off our luggage before the check-in time since we arrived to Barcelona early.
