Elena's room with a balcony in Eixample is the perfect place to stay while visiting Barcelona. The room is comfortable and private. Her home is very nice and is in a wonderful building on a great street in a safe and lovely neighborhood. The subway is on the corner, but beautiful sights are within walking distance. Elena is welcoming and full of ideas about the city, how to get around, and where to eat. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in her home and highly recommend it to anyone going to Barcelona.
