My partner and I just spent a wonderful 4 nights in beautiful Barcelona at this very comfortable, modern and conveniently located apartment near Plaça d'Espanya. We had never booked through airbnb before and were a little apprehensive. However Juan Carlos was such a delight to work with from the start, I never felt worried.

Juan was very accommodating and prompt with his communications with us. He was flexible with our arrival time and was waiting for us outside the apartment at our mutually agreed check in time. Because Juan did not have any clients checking in on our check out day, he allowed us a late check out for no extra charge, plus arranged for a taxi to collect us. His advice and suggestions/recommendations were all very good. A great guy :)

There are plenty of decent food shops nearby for all the basics and more that one might want. The apartment is well equipped and simply, tastefully decorated in an IKEA style. The nearest Metro stop is a 5-10 min walk away from the apartment and only 3 stops direct to Les Ramblas, or 4 stops direct to Plaça de Catalunya.

The only slightly negative things are that, don’t expect a lovely view from either of the balconies. The one off the bedroom looks almost into neighbouring apartments, and the one off the lounge is slightly nicer but with no view. I would also say that, while yes it does sleep 4, with 2 in the bedroom (double bed) and 2 on the sofa bed in the lounge, personally I think it is better suited for a couple who will share the double bed in the bedroom. It was perfect for the two of us.

But hey, these are very very small negatives to an otherwise lovely, comfortable, modern and secure apartment in a great location for all the wonderful sites in Barcelona. I highly recommend staying here and I hope to stay again soon.
