The room has lots of charm and it is perfect for real Barcelona experience. The view from the balcony if nearly perfect, looking at the narrow street with lots of characteristic Spanish balconies.
The location is perfect - Cathedral is 4 minutes walk away, Mercat de Santa Caterina is in the back street, Barceloneta beach is 20 minutes easy walk away, Arc de Triomf 10 minutes... and you have everything you need around.
Maribel is very sweet and she would surprise us with melon for breakfast :). She is also very flexible and ready to help when needed. She respects your privacy, but welcomes you to eat and mingle with her.
I stayed with my friend and we fully recommend Maribel and her apartment!
