We stayed at Andres' place (45 Gaudi) while vistiting our daughter who is spending the semester at Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona. The location was great for proximity to her apartment and school but also for many other reasons we were happy to discover. 45 Gaudi is a very short walk from La Sagrada Familia (gorgeous) and the Metro station which was very easy to navigate in our exploring of Barcelona. A short walk to the Metro and a quick rail hop has you at the Port, the Gothic Quarter, Passeig de Gracia or wherever you want to go. 45 Gaudi is on a pedestrian walkway street (no vehicles) so you can stroll up and down the street to try out many different delicious tapas restaurants. Prior guests have left great suggestions on their favorite spots and they did not disappoint.
When you want to cook in the nice kitchen you can pick up everything you need at the full grocery store about a block away.
Our flight arrived later in the evening but Andres was there waiting for us and showed us all the features if the apartment. He was a great host with wonderful communication all the way from booking through our stay and even afterwards when we had to arrange to pick up something we had left behind. He even arranged a taxi for us one day when I asked his advice on how to get to the airport for a day trip. We used that taxi company on several occasions based on their good service.
45 Gaudi is clean, modern and has an impressive bathroom/shower, Mac computer for use, wi-fi and a nice balcony with view of La Sagrada Familia and the pedestrian mall below.
Overall a wonderful trip with A+ accommodations and host. Would stay here again. Thank you Andres!
