Sven's flat is in a great location! Far enough from the truely touristy areas to feel like you are hanging with the locals, while also only a short ride (or walk) down to Eixample, the beach, or Las Ramblas!
The apartment was clean and we loved the windows that opened on both sides! The church square right out front provided us with music ranging from acoustic guitar covers to Opera, which was very cool!
The mattress was on the firm side, but easily overlooked with so much happening around the flat. The door can be a challenge at first but was no problem once we got the hang of it.
We had a great experience with the check-in process also. We were forced fly in later than expected, but Sven was able to accommodate us at no extra cost since we let him know our change of plans as soon as we found out.
Thanks Sven!
