Desirée's place is absolutely wonderful. The apartment itself is gorgeous, sparkling clean and with great air and light, in a sweet neighbourhood and the shortest walking distance from a metro station and La Avenida Diagonal. The communication with Desirée was very clear and uncomplicated. Not to mention the cherry on top: Bancha, the sweetest cat known to humankind! We had a lovely time and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Barcelona.
One small thing: the bed is extremely stiff. We didn't mind, but if you are a person with specific mattress preferences, it might be of importance to you.
