I've always had good experiences using airbnb, but this was the best. The apartment itself is amazing - full of original Catalan architecture including tiles, vaulted ceilings, and traditional doorways, but tastefully refurbished so that at the same time it feels very modern. The furniture/fittings are of excellent quality and the it has everything you could need (air conditioning, dish washer, washing machine, kitchen appliances, etc).

In terms of location, it's a very short work from many of the famous Gaudi landmarks. It's possible to walk into the Gothic quarter, and metro/bus stops are nearby if you need to go further afield. There's very little noise from the street despite it being on a bustling avenue in the Eixample district.

We were met by Roberto on arrival, who was excellent with communications throughout. Roberto was friendly, welcoming, and extremely helpful in providing some tips to get oriented.

I'd definitely recommend this listing!
