Mariana’s apartment is a joy to stay in. The rooms are impeccably clean and bright. Everything is beautifully curated, from the small perfume bottles to the copper pots. The ceiling and tiles are definitely unique and gorgeous. The kitchen was more than adequate with a nice side refrigerator. The view out the window of the ornate bullring is quintessential Spain. It is an easy walk to Sagrada Familia and the Gothic Quarter. The weather was cold while we were in Barcelona but the apartment was warm and cozy with lots of hot water. There are some excellent bakeries near the apartment and very good restaurants within a few miles. The third bedroom is very small and you pass through another bedroom to access it but it’s a great spot to read. Mariana is a responsive and helpful host.
