Mariona's home is a beautiful, chic apartment in a fantastic area. It has been her family home for generations and Mariona takes great care of the place. It is spacious for 4 people, with a gorgeous sunny terrace that is filled with plants and fairy lights (which light up in the evening and are solar-powered). Mariona welcomed us when we arrived with local Catalan cookies and a helpful information book on visiting Barcelona. She allowed us to check-out late and leave our bags in the apartment for a long time. I can't wait to stay at Mariona's apartment when I come back to Barcelona.
