Myself and five of my friends stayed in Alejandro's apartment for a week and we had such a lovely time. The area itself was perfect for what we needed, with several small supermarkets nearby as well as the lovely square just around the corner. Although we did a lot of walking around the city, we also used public transport a fair amount which was easily accessible from the apartment. The apartment itself was true to the photos and the perfect size for my friends for a week - we especially enjoyed having the terrace for breakfast in the morning and when we cooked in the evening. Alejandro was a great host on top of all of this. For example, he arranged for more towels to be dropped off asap when needed and he was easily contactable. This was particularly useful on our last day due to our flight being so late - he arranged for us to leave our bags so we wouldn't have to carry them round all day. Overall, I would definitely recommend staying with Alejandro - his apartment helped us to make the most of our first (and most likely not last) trip to Barcelona. Thank you! :)
