Maria is a fabulous host and was at the apartment to welcome us, show us the flat and even recommend ways to enjoy Barcelona. The apartment is situated between the Sagrada Familia and the Hospital Sant Pau--two of the city's many architectural wonders. The sunny apartment is exactly as pictured in the photos, very roomy, clean, quiet and comfortable for a group of 5 adults. We appreciated having wi-fi and even liked watching a bit of Spanish TV at night. The location was very convenient with restaurants, cafes and markets all in easy walking distance. The flat is convenient to the Metro and to taxi stands for very easy mobility around Barcelona. Renting Maria's flat has been my favorite Airbnb experience and I really enjoyed meeting her-- definitely enriched my experience of visiting Barcelona.
