We LOVED staying with Alex in his beautiful apartment. To be honest, I was a bit nervous about renting a room and not the entire apartment however, within meeting Alex for 5 minutes I felt like I was spending the week with a friend at his house, he was so kind and welcoming. The room was BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN. The view is amazing and the breeze from that open window is surprisingly comfortable even on really hot days. The bed was also very comfortable. "Room A" is spacious and bright. Alex provided a place for us to unpack and hang our clothes so we didn't feel like we were living out of a suitcase for a week. We also loved the recommendations he gave us for both food and places to check out. The apartment is located in the BEST location. We were a 5 minute walk from the Grand Via (Pl. Espanya) and all of the buses and trains needed to get around the city. We were also only about 15 minutes away from the airport which made it really easy and affordable to get to and from the airport.
Overall, I would highly recommend staying at Alex's place to my friends and family looking for a spot in Barcelona. Alex, thank you for making our stay in your apartment so enjoyable and memorable.
