Prior to my stay, Silvina was in contact with me even though she was out of the country at the time. She advised me to contact her friend Maribel before coming to Barcelona. Communication with Maribel was easy and she received us with a warm smile and a descriptive tour of the apartment. I found the Location to be ideal and couldnt have been happier. The apartment was nice and clean and the beds were oh so comfortable. Silvina's place would be a 1st choice if i went back to Barcelona.
