Jordi is an exceptional host. His communication was prompt, he gave great advice with truly local expertise. He also showed great concern for our welfare during our stay, making occasional contact without be the least bit intrusive.
We quickly felt completely at home in his lovely apartment which is in a vibrant area in Gracia with plenty of bars, cafes, bakeries and restaurants in the immediate vicinity. The best coffee we have had so far in Europe was just around the corner which we had every morning before setting off to take in the sights of Barcelona. We like to walk and did walk to all the major attractions like the absolutely amazing Sagrada Familia. We also walked to Park Guell, Casa Batllo and also as far as the Marina. I realise that some people might not like to, or be able to walk this far so they can take the Metro which is a couple of hundred metres at the end of the street.
The bed was comfortable, there were two bathrooms and a washing machine which was much needed by this stage of our holiday. The apartment is at street level and we found it thorough relaxing to open the shutters and enjoy watching and listening to the buzz of the activities in the street both in the day and night (when we were at home). Notice how easily I called it home!
Our only concern about giving Jordi’s a place the highest possible rating is that it might encourage more people to book it and that it might not be available when we come back!
