This apartment is the kind of Airbnb places that make five-star hotels pale in comparison. It's meticulously clean and very well equipped. The attention to details such as first aid kit, soundproof windows, handmade soaps and fresh flowers, is simply amazing. Alex was very friendly and thoughtful, provided us all kinds of tips on how to enjoy Barcelona to the fullest. The location of the apartment was for us an A+. There're so many great restaurants in the neighborhood that we did not have one mediocre meal during our 5-day visit. 2 subway stations can be reached in several mins by walk, but we especially enjoyed the walks to Universitat and Catalunya (15-20 mins), a great way to experience these artsy areas filled with stylish restaurants and stores.
