My teenage daughters and I had a wonderful experience with both Alex and his lovely apartment. He was extremely responsive and helpful at every step of the process communicating in perfect English. He accommodated our early arrival and greeted us at the apartment with water, maps & a lovely gift of Spanish cava. He went out of his way to be helpful. The apartment is well-appointed with a full kitchen and was extremely comfortable, immaculate and centrally located in a nice area. I highly recommend Alex as a great host and the apartment as a perfect home-base in the gorgeous city of Barcelona.
