Juan is as good a host that you can expect. Communication was brilliant right from the booking time till we left the apartment. He was very helpful with explaining the best way to do things in Barcelona and also helped us buy tickets online to avoid waiting in queues. His recommendations for food were awesome and I highly recommend to try them, especially Chitaco which is right around the corner from apartment (don't miss their Sangria) and Bar lobo by Ramblas for nice tapas. Juan also was friendly enough to take us to probably the best place in town to watch the world cup football games and then hung out with us for late night bites.
The apartment is very conveniently located and you can walk to most places without actually liVing in the hustle and bustle of The off town. The room was well set up and the whole place was really nice. Juan gave me a lot of tips on being a good host which I intend to start soon.
I highly recommend Juan's place to anyone visiting Barcelona
