Alex's apartment was perfect. It was exactly as advertised - bright, spacious, clean and has every amenity that we needed to make our stay in Barcelona comfortable. Actually it was a little bit too big for just the 2 of us (two bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 living room, kitchen and a dining room), but we enjoyed the extra space. The bed in the main room was comfortable and there was a huge wardrobe. We didn't use it because it was a short stay but I imagined it could be very useful for a family who stays longer!

The kitchen was big and well-stocked - Alex and his wife even thoughtfully prepared plates and glasses for children :)

The location was great, it was 5 minutes walk to Sagrada Familia and 5 minutes to a metro station. There are many restaurants, cafes, bakeries, supermarkets, ham & cheese stores around the neighbourhood so you will never be hungry!

As a host, Alex was very kind and helpful. He responded very fast even though our booking was very very last minute. He sat with us and took the time to explain everything we needed to know about Barcelona and the neighbourhood and he gave plenty of useful tips too. He even provided a folder listing all the must-see places, including recommended restaurants around those area.

Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better host and apartment for our stay in Barcelona. Will definitely stay there again. Muchas gracias Alex!
