Silvia was a great host. She kept in contact regularly and made our arrival smooth and easy. The house was an absolutely fantastic place to stay and, without any doubt, when we return to Barcelona, we won't look anywhere else. The location is great - very short walk to the nearest tube and great access to the sights of the city and to the sea front. The house itself was fabulous - great kitchen and lovely terraces to sit out on in the heat. Bedrooms really well arranged with very good air conditioning. There is parking further up the hill which was free and we then did not use the car for the rest of the stay as there was no point. Lots of shops nearby to purchase items for self-catering; equally, plenty of places to eat out if you can't be bothered to cook! We were met by Silvia's sister and nephew when we arrived - they arrived really punctually and were very helpful in showing us around the house and giving us tips on how to get to the football stadium which we were visiting that night. We felt very safe and secure throughout our stay and wish we could have had longer than three nights! We will be back!!
