Enric & Packo were perfect hosts: the helped us to settle in, and understand the city, very warm and welcoming. The exuberant about this city, and with good reason: Barcelona is stunning, and they are excited to share the joy of the city. The area is easy to access (directly atop the subway stop), and in the evenings the Ave. Gaudi makes a lovely pedestrian plaza to stroll for an evening of tapas, wine, and gelato. The flat is clean and modern, with a cozy sleeping loft which allows for a direct view of the spires of the Sagrada Familia... we awoke from a siesta to watch workmen atop the spires, rappelling down to finish work on the cathedral -!!! Really, an experience of the city we could not match.
