Francesco was very helpful. He met us upon our arrival and went over many sites, restaurants, etc. on a map of Barcelona. His tips were very helpful. He is very friendly and lives in an apartment downstairs in the building.
The apartment is located within walking distance of many important sites and, yet, is located in a more quiet residential area. The terrace has a magnificent western view of the city and the ocean. It has two couches, a table and chairs and two reclining chairs. So, it acts as another room in good weather. The kitchen has a view of the east. The apartment is small and incredibly efficient. The kitchen has everything you need and the entire apartment is well equipped.

This was our first experience with Airbnb and we loved it. We could cook when we wanted to and found having our own place to be perfect for us. We came and went as we pleased and could come back during the day if we decided to. The apartment is close enough to everything and the Metro is close by. Taxis are easy to get and we used them as well. There are supermarkets, fruit and vegetable stands, pharmacies and a bakery around the corner.
We recommend Francesco as a host and this apartment was terrific!
