If you're considering booking Eli and Agus' apartment, just save yourself some time and do it now.

If you need convincing, read on: this place is simply perfection. In a gorgeous old building, the apartment is well laid out, chic and comfy at the same time. We absolutely adored the neighbourhood (we've since moved on in Barcelona and miss this hood terribly) it's a lovely walk to Ramblas/El Born or to the harbour. The Miro museum was a nice little walk too. There are wonderful restos (quaint little places and some of the best in town: Agus and Bodega 1900 were a couple faves). But the kitchen is well appointed, so nice to pick up some groceries and cook too.

Agus was a lovely host, took the time to explain quit routes to different places. When we had questions they were answered right away. Extra towels were left for us in the dryer (but we didn't need them). He even met us a little earlier then expected and let us leave out bags when our next host was delayed.

Honestly, it's an apartment and hosts like this that make Airbnb a wonderful experience. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer. Till next time:)
