We travelled for 4 weeks through Morocco, Portugal and Spain staying in AirBnB places throughout Portugal and Spain. Maria's apartment was the closest we came to a 'home away from home'. It is spacious, beautifully appointed, so comfortable with every conceivable mod con and so quiet it feels like a secluded chalet on a deserted island! And unbelievably it is right in the heart of the busiest section of Barcelona.
The apartment also has one of the best beds we slept on and the best showers we've taken all tour!
We had Lola greet us on arrival and she is lovely. Even though we were an hour and a half late due to a train breakdown, Lola forwent her luncheon appointment to greet us. A thousand thank you's Lola.
The apartments location means almost everything is in walking distance. The apartment block even has a lift! Step outside and head right to La Rambla and Plaza Catalunya only two minutes away, or left and you find yourself in the old town (Gothic area) or El Borne.
Highly recommend the tapas at a place called Tosca's only a few minutes walk. Supermarkets and a plethora of other shops are within a minutes walk.
Thank you Maria for sharing your apartment with us. We will be back again one day and we will be seeking lodging at Maria's apartment before look anywhere else.
