Isidre is a great host. He was there to greet us on arrival (despite confusion caused by Easyjet who said we would be delayed, and then we arrived on time!) Isidre had provided fresh oranges to squeeze, other breakfast items and a bottle of wine. In addition he gave us a Coca (a traditional thing to eat at the festival of Sant Joan- which was on during our stay) very generous of him. He also gave us information and advice about the city and assured us that if we had any problems we must just contact him (we didn't need to, there were no problems )
The apartment is in a good safe neighbourhood. 3 mins walk to metro (Tarrongona to Placa Catalunya about 15 mins or so) and easy access to bus stops (We took D20 bus to Barceloneta beach from stop near Placa Barcelona,which took 30 mins). There are restaurants shops and supermarkets nearby. Its an easy walk to the Magic Fountains(if you are lucky enough to be there when they are performing, you should go)
The apartment is well furnished. It has a nice bathroom. The kitchen has all the things you need. The beds are comfortable. One of the bedrooms leads out to a small balcony. The air con is very efficient. Lovely to come back to a cool homely secure place after busy days in beautiful Barcelona.
