My husband, 1.5 year old daughter and I stayed in this apartment for a couple of days. It was a comfortable home base for us to easily explore Barcelona without being in the melee on La Rambla. We enjoyed spending time on the terrace with a cup coffee and a glass of wine and just taking in Barcelona. There are plenty of restaurant options close by for night time dining close to home.

The apartment is baby/toddler friendly. The electric sockets near the crib were baby-proofed, as were the corners of the glass dining table. Our hosts provided a crib and a high chair. Our daughter slept soundly in the second bedroom. Although the room doesn't have windows, the dark and quiet were perfect for her to have uninterrupted sleep. She also loved the fun star and ladybug lights (seen in the pictures). The kitchen was well-equipped and the shower had great water pressure. The apartment was also very clean.

Marcelo and Dinna were the perfect hosts - they provided us with a map of Barcelona and have a book with great restaurant recommendations (including the microbrewery Moritz, which is a great spot for beer aficionados). They went out of her way to find vegetarian dining options and reserved a taxi for our early morning departure to the airport since we don't speak Spanish. For us, it was huge plus that they were next door, just in case we had any questions or problems.

We would definitely recommend staying here if you are visiting Barcelona.
