First time in Barcelona and using Airbnb. Weather during our Thanksgiving week stay was temperature comfortable outdoors with little/no rain. Rocio's place is spot on as advertised, and communication with her from booking, to arrival, and throughout our stay was quick and responsive. Although she could not meet us in person, she was easily accessible via messaging/email. The location was absolutely perfect. The 2-bedroom
en suite, penthouse unit is very clean, stocked with useful amenities you would fine at hotels, very comfortable beds, and quite roomy for my husband and myself, two young female adults, and my 12-year old, who had a full size bed all to herself in a semi-private sectioned space off the living room area. The kitchen is bright and airy, and the patio space is amazing especially at night with the outdoor lights. Check-in was very easy, and Rocio provided photo details on how to access the keys, the building lobby, the elevator, and finally the apartment unit. Water pressure and temperature in the bathrooms worked well throughout our stay too. There are working modern AC/Heat units in the kitchen/dining area, living room, and each of the bedrooms, but the temperature inside the apartment was fine even without their use. There was plenty of kitchenware, pots/pans, utensils, drinkware, cooking condiments, etc., and Rocio even provided some breakfast pantry items, fresh milk, a bottle of wine, and Nespresso coffee maker/capsules. There are markets close by and we were able to get anything else we needed for our comfort. Many of the tourist sites are walkable from this centrally located apt. building. We did not use their subway/metro system but opted for the city's uBer-version taxis to/from the airport and when we got too tired to walk. Overall, we highly recommend Rocio's excellent penthouse apartment. There was no worry about our safety and security throughout our stay. We look forward to returning to Barcelona and staying at her place again. Our experience with a super-gracious host and staying at a safe, clean and comfortable accommodation made our Barcelona trip successful and memorable. Thank you Rocio for everything!
