I loved staying at Andres’ place, highly recommend it. It was in a great location, you can see Sagrada Familia around the street corner, it’s maybe a 10 minute walk. The metro is also a 10 minute walk at most, other lines are even closer. Most of the Gaudi (casa mila, casa batllo, casa vicens) is a nice 20 minute walk. My favorite place was the cafe downstairs. Amazing coffee and pastries. There is plenty to eat within walking distance and things are open late. I felt very safe walking around at night as a young solo female traveler. The place was spotless, very clean and I LOVED the bottle of cava waiting for me on arrival!! Andres made me feel welcomed from the start. He was extremely flexible with my late arrival and flexible with my check out time as well which was a huge bonus for me! Always answered my questions in a timely manor. The only down side is the street downstairs is slightly loud until late hours but I think that’s a given if you’re staying anywhere in Barcelona!!
