I can't rate Mike's apartment highly enough. My partner and I had a great time in Barcelona and loved coming back each night to such a well designed and decorated living space. It's much bigger than it looks in the pictures and is absolutely immaculate and very welcoming.

Mike had very kindly provided us with a bottle of local wine, some orange juice, 2 large bottles of water and enough coffee pods for the coffee machine to last our stay. He also met us late in the evening, as our flight was quite a late one and then was delayed and was very happy to show us around the place and give us some great advice on local bars and restaurants. Turned out we had a fair bit in common, both coming from, and living in, similar places in the UK.

Mike was a great host and checked in every so often just to make sure everything was going well. He also arranged for us to check out a little later than usual and didn't charge us, which was much appreciated.

I'll definitely be revisiting Barcelona, as there's so much to see. I can't think of a better location to stay in, there are so many great bars, cafes and restaurants in the vicinity of the apartment, some literally within seconds of the main door. When I come back, Mike's Parlament 29 apartment will be at the top of my list, no doubt.

Oh, and there's a built in sound system!

Can't recommend this place enough.
