If this apartment catches your eye for an upcoming trip to Barcelona, look no further! Phil and Fiona’s apartment is absolutely stunning and incredibly spacious. Phil was very communicative, which we were thankful for, and allowed us to store our bags in the place before it was ready for check in. After a long day of travel, that was much appreciated! He also walked us over to a local coffee shop where we hung out until the apartment was ready.
We were very surprised by how large it was, considering it was in central Barcelona! The apartment was clean and you can tell it is very well maintained. The neighborhood felt very safe and it was nice to come back to a quieter place after a long day exploring the city. The courtyard it overlooks is also a nice perk when opening the blinds in the morning!
Pretty much everything is walkable if you’ve got the right shoes! On our first day we walked to La Boqueria and it was only 25 minutes away. Also, if you’re into Asian fusion, we found Hawker45 on our first night to be absolutely DELICIOUS and only 7 minutes walk from the apartment.
Check out was also very smooth. Our train out of Barcelona wasn’t until 17:00, but Phil recommended Locker Barcelona to store our luggage while we explored the rest of the day. We were very appreciative of that.
Thank you, Phil and Fiona for a wonderful stay! When we find ourselves planning our next trip to Barcelona, we’ll definitely stay at your place again.
