Eleonora was an amazing host and SOO helpful! When we landed in Barcelona, our luggage, car seat, and stroller were all lost en route. We were so worried we wouldn't be able to maneuver around Barcelona, but Eleonora let us borrow a stroller from her friend for the week which was a huge relief for us! She also helped anytime we had a question ("Where do we buy cheap clothes?" "We need to print a ticket - where can we do that?" "Can you schedule a taxi for us to take us to airport and ensure it has a car seat in it?") and she responded very promptly! She arranged a taxi to and from the airport for us which was a load of worry off our backs. Her apartment space was very lovely, and had all the necessities we needed. She supplied a pack and play for our little one to sleep, a high chair, and toys and books to help keep him occupied. The apartment is right above a Placa, which means lots of social noise in the evenings, (talking, kids playing, some music, yelling, etc) but our son was able to sleep at 7pm every night with no issue.
There are plenty of grocery stores nearby (we ate lunch in most days because of our toddler), and it wasn't too far for most of the big sites in Barcelona. All in all, we had a good time - Eleonora's hospitality really made a trip that started off horrible (and had the potential to be really bad), really enjoyable and pleasant!
