We were welcomed by Irene's dad who was there to greet us at the apartment. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped for self catering. The location was excellent for getting a real feel for the Barcelona culture and felt very safe. The terrace was a sun trap during the day and was very peaceful to sit out on in the evening. Irene was in contact via email and kept us informed of when there would be someone coming to clean ready for the next guests. Her ability to speak English made it all very easy to arrange. THANK YOU Irene x
