Our family had a wonderful time in Barcelona and staying at this property made our time even more special. Laura is a wonderful host, and she was excellent with communication and responsive to all of our needs. She personally met us during the check in process to show us around the property. This meant a lot because this was our first visit to Spain and we do not speak Spanish so we were a bit nervous. Meeting Laura made the experience more personal. Prior to our arrival, she also provided us with a very helpful guide book which gave us some wonderful suggestions about places to go in Barcelona and nearby restaurants to try. Also, the apartment is in an amazing location-- being so close to Sagrada Familia was really special. There are also a lot of restaurants and bakeries in the area. There is a small market downstairs which was extremely convenient. We enjoyed having our morning coffee on the balcony.
