John, Vanessa and their local agent Jepis were extremely helpful when we selected their apartment for our stay in Barcelona. They offered us assistance from the booking process all the way until our departure. Jepis gave us clear driving directions to the apartment, indicated nearby parking places and found for us the best parking deal for a 3 day stay.
The flat itself was spacious and clean. Our bedrooms were equipped with large, comfy beds and lots of closet space. Two nice bathrooms made the apartment sharing really easy for parents and teenage kids.
The location is very good. The neighbourhood is relatively quiet, but at the same time it has an easy access to the shops and restaurants of the Poble Nou Rambla, which is just around the corner.
The district of Poble Nous is not directly in the chaos of the tourist spots. However, a convenient metro station with good connections, is within a 5 minute walk. You can also easily walk from the apartment to the Centre of Barcelona or to its lovely beaches. All it takes is about 20 minutes.
So all in all, great hosts, very nice apartment and pretty interesting neighbourhood. I would absolutely recommend this place and I will stay there again! Thank you John, Vanessa and Jepis.
