Paula's place is the epitome of casual comfort. I gad everything I needed from the moment I arrived: a private room with the door tucked discreetly behind a bookshelf for even more privacy, a private bathroom, a comfortable and stylish shared space with a beautiful terrace bursting with potted plants and an open rooftop space perfect for yoga. Each morning, breakfast was on the table when I woke up, along with coffee and fresh-squeezed orange juice.
Stepping off of the Metro at Vall d'Hebron was a breath of fresh air everytime after the bustle of the main city. Where the main city is loud and crowded, the neighborhood around Paula's is quiet and welcoming.
Speaking to Paula was a delight. She is kind and intelligent and her English is impeccable. Her partner Omar is wonderfully kind as well, and togetherit felt like having a family to come home to after my adventures in a foreign land.
You will love staying with Paula. This is a perfect spot for a solo traveller, and in particular, safe and secure for a woman travelling alone. I would be honored and priviledged to stay her again and I hope I get the opportunity.
