Lovely apartment, the terrace is great, wonderful location, especially if you want to see Gaudi's masterpieces (La Sagrada Familia y Parc Güell). Alphonso was amazing, beyond kind and helpful (especially as my high school Spanish is terrible and he somehow understood me). And I have to say, the air conditioning was a blessing in the heat! The apartment has nice amenities: plenty of towels, Nespresso machine, shampoo and such in the bathroom. All in all, a great start in Barcelona, a wonderful apartment, and great hosts! Thanks Pep (and Alphonso)!
