Of all our Airbnb experiences so far, this one ranks as the most interesting and enjoyable we have had to date.
Rodrigo and one Carlos were exceptional hosts. Their place is beautiful, stylish, well appointed, well located, and immaculately clean.
Their communication was great. After we landed in Barcelona and had a problem with our luggage, we contacted Rodrigo immediately, and he immediately responded Indicating that this unexpected delay would be no problem.
Fortunately, we found our luggage and were at their place in a short period of time. Juan Carlos was there to greet us, and we immediately felt at home.
We were impressed by the cleanliness and stylishness of the condo, and the local view of a traditional and local Barcelona neighborhood was excellent.
Their location is great. It is an easy walk to the Gothic district. Additionally, we rented bikes, and were amazed by how safe it is to ride bicycles in Barcelona. Numerous bike lanes, which allows safe passage on otherwise busy city streets. We saved a lot of money on taxis and Uber’s by simply renting a bicycle, and keeping it locked up near the apartment.
We rode the bikes from their apartment all the way to the beach, and rode the entire length of the beach almost to the very far end. What a great way to casually take in the sights, experience the warmth of Barcelona, and in a way that traveling by taxi or even walking would not provide.
Our two hosts went out of their way to make us feel at home, sharing coffee with us, conversation, and even going out to a local restaurant for breakfast, and another very interesting club in the evening. We enjoyed it all.
Our memories of Barcelona are indeed great memories, I feel that we made new friends, and I look forward to seeing you guys in the very near future, so does Keiko. I know she had a wonderful time also, and cannot wait to see you guys again.
Best wishes in all your endeavors and best wishes to the two of you! Much love to you both.
Nick & Keiko
