Oscar and Susana's apartment is very spacious and very well located in the Poble Sec neighbourhood which has plenty of restaurants and supermarkets, and it's just a 2 minute walk away from the Paral.lel metro station so it's super easy to get around.

Oscar warmly welcomed us when we arrived, helped us with our luggage and gave us a detailed overview of the apartment and the immediate area which made us feel at home. They also prepared a bottle of Cava for us although we unfortunately didn't have time to drink it!

Something which we feel could be improved is the mattress which feels like foam and is a bit too soft. As a result our backs were a bit sore. Since the Poble Sec neighbourhood has plenty of bars and restaurants, it also can be a tad noisy on weekend nights with drunk revelers out on the streets until late, although that is hardly the apartment or the hosts' fault!

Oscar and Susana are very thoughtful and even prepared some juice and bread for us. The apartment is fully equipped and also has a bunk bed and even a baby chair which makes it family-friendly. It's definitely a good choice if you wish to stay near the heart of Barcelona!
