Jose met us on time. His English was very good. He helped identify some good local restaurants.
The apartment was much bigger than we expected and was very very clean. The kitchen and bathroom were modern. Double glazed Windows meant that there was little noise from the street.
However, the most important feature is the view! I assumed the picture on the Airbnb website was taken with a zoom lens, but the apartment really is that close to the Sagrada Familia. It is amazing; we did not tire of staring at the church and its construction.
We will return to Barcalona in a few years and would hope to stay here again.
