Paz was there to meet us when we arrived. We had just experienced a huge stress as a result of my daughter leaving a bag with her passport in it in the taxi. Immediately, Paz was very helpful and compassionate about our situation. She offered to write a message to post outside in case the taxi should return (didn’t happen, unfortunately) & made suggestions regarding what steps we should take to deal with the situation. Throughout our stay there, she was very responsive and helpful. She let us stay a little past checkout as we dealt with getting a new passport and allowed us to leave our backpacks there for a few hours on the last day. Very kind!
This artsy apartment felt very much like home to us. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare simple meals. The bed was quite firm but we slept great. Bedding was very clean. Shower water pressure was good and hot water plentiful, much appreciated after a day in the rain. WiFi worked great. One of the best features of the apartment is the terrace! So nice to relax in a lounge chair in the sun and a big table for outdoor dining. There is a gorgeous jacaranda tree across the street that was in bloom ~ so pretty.
Location is great. We walked to Park Güell (15 - 20 minutes) & La Sagrada Familia (~45 minutes). The L7 metro line is only about a 5-10 minute walk & that will take you to Plaza Catalunya (Las Ramblas) & from there you can connect to other lines to Montjuic, etc. There are nearby grocery stores just a few minutes away.
If you are looking for a homey, local neighborhood experience like we were, we highly recommend this lovely apartment.
