Rachel is a great host, friendly, respectful and easy going. I stayed in her place for 9 nights in mid-june and it was exactly what I needed. Even though do not expect anything special or outstanding. The appartement is really easily reachable and well located (a few minutes on foot from La Sagrada). But if you are not use to walk, you would have to take the metro (or rent a bike) to visit other places (35 min from the beach for those who likes the beach for instance). The neighbourhood was quite noisy the last 4 days (watching TV from 2 am). The noise-isolation is inexistant with the neighbours. Moreover, the bed is very small and if you are big (1m80 or more), it's gonna be hard for you to find the right position to sleep :D.
