What a great stay at Juan's place! Great and immediate communication from start to finish including an extensive list of local sights/bars/restaurants and general info about Barcelona. The location of the apartment, in a safe and quiet area, is within walking distance of the beach, Sagrada Familia, El Born, and the Marina Metro stop to get you anywhere else in town. The room was very clean and the balcony was very nice for a bit of relaxation before bed every night. Absolutely stay at Juan's place if you can, we certainly will again if we return to Barcelona!
