Juan Jose's apartment was a fabulous place for our family vacation visit to Barcelona. First, the location is outstanding as our 17 yr old daughter was very interested to visit all the Gaudi related sights having studied his work in her high school language class. Two blocks to Sagrada Familigia and a view of it from our balcony we enjoyed every time we went out on it. Two train stops to Casa Batllo, one stop to Casa Mila, 2 stops to catch the bus up to Park Guell, i don't think it could get more convenient for us! Great neighborhood, fabulous bakery directly beneath us for breakfast each morning, convenient to supermarket, and several nice restaurants a short walk in a neighborhood we felt very safe in.
Then the apartment, wow! the renovation done on it is amazing. Modern amenities along with great spaces, while keeping the original floors, the stone curved ceilings, what a treat! Loved having the little coffee machine there with some capsules ready to go to make coffee when we arrived, tired from the long travel time.
Juan did everything to make us feel welcome, giving recommendations on where to eat, anything we needed. I would highly recommend this place if you are visiting and need that added space for 3 to 4 people, and want to be able to easily visit all the things we saw in our few days in Barcelona.
