Monica is a very warm, welcoming, friendly lady who puts you at ease with a nice apartment in a great location. The street/area outside the flat is more pedestrianised, and the room itself inward facing so there is no road noise (a huge plus over other accommodation I have stayed in Barcelona/other cities with lots of traffic). Metro stations for accessing the rest of Barcelona are within walking distance. Monica keeps the place very tidy and clean. It was great staying with her and I really enjoyed my time in Barcelona.
