Our stay as a small family at Javier's place was simply great and exceeded our expectations. Fore and foremost, Javier is a terrific host. He is very thoughtful, from having some very nice food items in the house for us, to making available CDs/DVDs/games, to having excellent wifi/entertainment system/internet TV, to giving tips and key directions to local area, Barcelona attractions and transportation etc...Javier kindly checked with us if all was fine and if we needed anything the next day, which was very much appreciated.
We felt very much at home, in a fully equipped place which was also very nicely decorated. It was very clean and extremely well maintained and we had no issues. Building entrance is spotless with a secured door. There is one bus stop right outside, with other major lines (along Carrer de Sants) and one or more metro stations (especially Badal) within few mins walk . There are many supermarkets and cafes/bakeries around, including one in building itself but any city location is easily reachable for activities, nice restaurants and shopping. We are glad to have stayed at Javier's place in Barcelona, and highly recommend it.
