Very good location, in the heart of la rambla. Sorrounded by restaurants and public transport. Walking distance on just about everything, the la sagrada familia and park guell is quite a walk, good if you want to exercise but if not metro is just a walk away. We did not met maurizio personally but his girlfried, laura, greeted us and gave us tips as to where to eat local food. The room is quite hot but there is a fan and you can also open the window for fresh air. We had a nice stay at this place 😊
