We loved our stay at Andrea's home! The moment we landed in Barcelona and checked in we felt an immediate sense of ease (likely thanks to Andrea's warm welcome and the chill, laidback atmosphere of the neighborhood).
Pros:
- Location, location, location. The Gràcia neighborhood is absolutely lovely. Very close to Park Güell, endless boutique shops, delicious restaurants, and <10 walk to the train station that took you straight downtown. Previous reviewers mention a loud ruckus through the night but we honestly didn't hear any of it and were not bothered once.
- Clean and comfortable. The Airbnb had everything we needed during our stay, was up to my highly type-A cleanliness standards, and we slept well on the comfortable mattress.
- Andrea gave great recommendations for restaurants and sights to see. Our favorite of his recs that we didn't have on the list we came with: Fundació Joan Miró. The view of the city from this museum was gorgeous.
Con:
- The air conditioning unit in the living area was very loud when turned on. This is *barely* a con because we really didn't need to use it much since the air conditioning unit in the bedroom worked well and kept us comfortable.
Would 100% stay here again.
