My partner and I had a fantastic weekend stay at Pep's apartment! The metro is definitely the best way of getting around Barcelona, and there's a stop conveniently located just a few minutes from the apartment. Although we did not meet Pep in person, communication was very good - he even messaged to let us know about the strikes at Barcelona airport so we could plan our check out accordingly. I would highly recommend Pep as a host to anyone wanting to visit Barcelona.
