I stayed in javier‘s apartment together with my parents for 4 nights and what should we say - it was amazing. The apartment looks exactly like on the pics and you have everything you need. The beds were comfortable, everything was clean and fresh. Javier is pretty courteous, he really cares about how you doing. The location is great because Poblenou is a safe and calm area, a little bit away from the big city and the tourism. Nevertheless, the beach and the metro are just 10 minutes away, which takes you to the city center in less than 15 min. From the airport it took us about 55 min to get there (taking the aerobus to the center and afterwards the metro L4).
Restaurants, supermarkets and bakeries are very nearby and the rambla de poblenou is also worth a visit. I can fully recommend this apartment!!
