We could not have asked for a more welcoming host than Mireia. From the moment we meet her she gave us so much local knowledge on where to eat, places to visit etc that we felt very at easy and left us so looking forward to the coming days.
The apartment was just perfect, just as described and in a position which is almost in the heart of the city, (only 15 mins walk away), but in an area of local people and streets.
We were luckily enough to visit at the start of the 'La Festa Gracia' which is a week long street celebration that involves the whole neibourhood, where many of the streets are dressed up in various designs from from the film Avatar, the Flintstones, Lego, circus to a re-work of famous art works, statues and street art.
A very enjoyable all round experience, a city we will be visiting again and would defiantly go back to and recommend the host and her apartment.
