If you have a crowd to take care of you need to consider Maria's - it is a superb two story flat that provdie a ton of amenities. It has an abundance of terrences to relax in that provide flex space for outdoor meals, mid-afternoon tapas and great views of the city on the rooftop terrace. Both levels have well appointed bathrooms and the extra half bathroom meant that we had lots of flexibility for the four couples that shared this space. The kitchen is well stocked and although we didn't prepare any meals except breakfast it had a full range of cooking options. The washer helped us clean a few things before going home, and the access to the clothes line meant that our clothes was nice a fresh. If it had rained we did have the option of a dryer which we did not need. The beds were generally ok and each guest has a comfy pillow and both a small and large towel. The place was very clean and there is a lot of space to lounge about both inside and out. We were only sorry that we only had two days, we would have loved to stay longer. Very close to Park
Guell, and the nearby metro made it easy to get around to other locations. There are not a ton of restaurants nearby, but the Inka hamburger place is a resonalby priced options with all kinds of items on the menu (the goat salad was a big hit, althouh I stuck to the hot sandwiches). There are a lot of grocery and food options very near by and we did not lack for great pastries! The check in was easy and the flat itself is on a quaint and relatively quiet street. I understand why Maria is a super host, thanks for the wonderful stay;
