Esther is absolutely lovely! She made me feel right at home as soon as I arrived. The apartment is on the top floor of the most incredible old building. It's a climb to get to there but you absolutely forget about that as soon as you see the view from the terrace. It is truly one of a kind, and I would happily have stayed on that terrace for my entire trip just to take in the rooftops of Barcelona. The location of the apartment is phenomenal. You are right in the action (and in a very safe neighborhood of the city). If you are bathroom shy, the curtains on the toilet and shower might be an issue, but Esther gives you plenty of time in her place on your own so you can also have your privacy. Honestly, the terrace alone makes this place a steal. The room is very comfortable and charming (as appears in the photos). As for Esther, she goes out of her way to make breakfast for her guests and offer advice, tips, and ideas and check in while also giving each person space to enjoy his/her holiday.

Just a divine experience! I look forward to visiting Esther, her lovely home, and the incredible city of Barcelona again (hopefully) soon.
