Oleksandra was a terrific hostess, making sure that everything was in order for her guests, but not hovering. The location of her apartment is perfect not only for wonderful food with a friendly neighborhood vibe, but also for walking to the marvelous cable car up to Montjuic Castle. The views of Barcelona on the way up in the cable car, and from the top in the castle, are staggeringly beautiful. I could rave on about the location, but just want to add that for my daughter and me, Oleksandra's room and apartment were perfect: simple, airy, and very pleasant.
