We stayed a little over a week in Albert's apartment during our summer holiday which wasa perfect spot for exploring Barcelona, enjoying the nearby beach as well as making day trips in the area. The communication with Albert was spot on and very smooth. He is taking really good care of his guests! Though the apartment is at the crossing of two busy roads, it is only 10 minutes from Barcelona centre by metro and from a 10 minute walk feom the sandy beach. You have everything in the neighborhood from great restaurants, pubs, bars, supermarkets to pharmacies just around the corner. The apartment is very neat and clean, equipped with all the comfort you might need for a shorter or longer stay. If you arrive by car, there is an underground parking 400 m from the flat which is also convenient. Can only recommend Alvert's place and would stay here anytime again!
