Alfred and Pastora's place is awesome. The location is prime time. Across the street from La Sagrada Familia and very close to a metro station.
Pastora greeted us at MIDNIGHT after 20+ hours of flight. No extra charge for off hour check-in. They showed up on time when we checked out. Very punctual in both cases. She was very informative about the apartment and surroundings. Simply put, she was a good host.
The place has air conditioning in one room only. The fan in each room helps cool each room down in this European heat wave period.
The patio is nice to sit out late evening as you can enjoy your drink while staring at La Sagrada Familia.
The apartment is on the 7th floor. There is an elevator which helps. But, it is very small fitting only 4 people max - if you are not claustrophobic.
Lots of good places to eat in that area. The walking area in front of the apartment is nice to sit around and do people watching.
Note to travellers: If you come on a car, don't get a full size car. The streets are narrow and the parking spaces are even narrower.
Thank you so much, Pastora and Alfred.
