The place we stayed in was located in a central area that was in walking distance to a number of must see sight seeing spots. Claudio was extremely accommodating and helpful, from meeting us for an early check-in to setting up a taxi and helping with the bags on our last day there. Whenever I had a question for him, he responded immediately and gave great suggestions on where to go and what to see. The apartment we stayed in (6 of us) was clean and stylishly decorated. If I had to give a complaint it would be the lack of hot water if more than one person was in the shower at one time in the 3 bedroom/3 bathroom apartment. This was only a small inconvenience and did not put a damper on our stay. If I was ever in Barcelona again I would not hesitate to stay at Claudio’s apartment again.
