Xabier is a great and kind host. The location is unbeatable, so close to everything, and close to metro if you need to go a little far. I booked the apartment for two nights following my travel work near Barcelona. The first day I arrive, it was 9 am, I can only check in my hotel in the afternoon. During this time, I was hoping I can leave my luggage somewhere so I don't have drag my luggage for a whole day walking around the city. Xabier agreed to let me leave my luggage during the day for a few hours, although I was still 4 days away from my check-in date. Traveling alone, this meant a lot for my first experience with Barcelona. Living here, you can have a true experience of the vibrant life of Barcelona. Xabier's place is very comfortable for a good rest after a all day touring. Would come back in the future when visit again.
