From the time of booking onwards, Pilar was very helpful. She offered advice and information about the neighbourhood before I even asked. And when asked, she responded very promptly and answered all questions thoroughly. It was much appreciated because our party was visiting Barcelona for the very first time.

Upon arrival, Pilar's husband was ready to greet us in the apartment at the pre-appointed time. He proceeded to give us a tour, explaining how things worked, and offered to be of assistance throughout our trip. Whenever we had questions about the apartment (re: how appliances worked, etc.), Pilar would continue to respond immediately – putting us at ease and everything went smoothly.

The apartment itself was perfect for our group of three – we each had our own bed and free space to move about. The space was as advertised, very clean, well stocked in supplies and in order.

The location was fantastic – just about a 10-15 minute walk away from the Sagrada Familia, with walkable access to metro and tour hop-on/off bus stations. And downstairs were several restaurants, shops and markets for all your needs.

We were happy to have called this place home for a week – and highly recommend others to make Pilar's flat your home base when visiting the beautiful city of Barcelona.
