We really enjoyed our stay with Arrate in Barcelona. Her house was easy to find, is in a very friendly area, and considering its city location, is very quiet at night. The house is just a 5 minute walk from the nearest Metro station and has a great selection of bars, restaurants and shops close by. The outside space is huge and we would have liked to spend more time there, but with the weather being sunny but unseasonably cold, we didn't get as much chance to enjoy it as we would have liked. Arrate was very easy to communicate with and we had no problems during our stay. This was our 1st visit to Barcelona and we certainly plan to visit again in the future.
