The best place we've stayed!
I think the pictures speak for themselves - this apartment is beautiful. It felt like walking into a 5* hotel with the cleanliness, stylish decor and all the extra touches like wine, juice, biscuits, fruit, creams and bathroom amenities - Claude and Miriam really do a brilliant job.
Poblenou has been a great place to stay - it feels like we've experienced the real Barcelona away from really touristy spots - we came to stay 3wks and extended our stay at Claude and Miriam's for an extra week we loved it so much.
The beach is only 5mins away, as is the Metro and the main restaurant strip. There are bakeries, supermarkets, fruit shops all within 100m so it's a great location. There is the big shopping centre Diagonal Mar only 10min walk as well. We loved walks along the beach esplanade everyday.
Miriam was wonderful helping us when we arrived with our baby and helping return our rental car. The amenities for our baby were also brilliant; it really felt as though our hosts went above and beyond in all aspects. There is everything you need in the kitchen, lots of bedding and towels, products, washing machine and dryer, great Wifi - everything was perfect.
We'd highly recommend this place to anyone and will be sad to leave such a great city and great apartment.
