I had an excellent visit to the apartment with three of my friends. The host’s lovely mother met us and explained everything we needed clearly and gave us local information and recommendations. They were extremely helpful and responsive and allowed me an early check-in. The apartment is clean, comfortable and a good size with fantastic views from the balcony and all you need to prepare meals in the kitchen including a coffee machine. It was within easy walking distance of La Rambla and the gothic quarter, a half hour walk to the beach and taxis and Ubers were easy to get from outside. There are several supermarkets within a minute’s walk, an excellent coffee kiosk out the front and many bustling bars and restaurants. We loved it and would definitely use again next time we are in Barcelona.
