Jon´s penthouse was absolutely great! Almost everything is within easy walking distance; the best shopping and dining are within 10 minutes walk, and the Gothic Quarter and the waterfront are within 20 minutes. The apartment was spotless, quiet, and everything worked perfectly. My rating of the apartment being “what I expected “ is a reflection of my high expectations, and not any deficiency. Jon is a gracious and attentive host, and when we have the opportunity to return to Barcelona, Jon will be whom we contact first.
