Me and my boyfriend came to Barcelona for a week and chose to stay here after being drawn in by the beautiful photos of the flat, particularly the terrace!
The place looked exactly as it does in the photos and was so homely and cosy with very arty, quirky trinkets everywhere. Paz was away when we arrived but her son Pablo did the check in and he was kind enough to wait at the flat for us when we were an hour late because our flight was delayed. He was very helpful showing us places we could go and the flat had loads of maps and guidebooks already there for us.
The flat was also equipped with kitchenware such as pans, plates, glasses, cutlery etc which was handy as we cooked dinner at home on several nights. It was also a nice touch that there was a chess board for us to play!
The private terrace was quiet and serene and the perfect place to sit out in the mornings to have breakfast, during the day where the sun was on it and in the evenings when it was cooler. Overall, it was definitely the part of the apartment we enjoyed the most because it was just so relaxing and chilled and beautifully decorated with plants and more trinkets.
The apartment was in a great location, about 3 minutes walk from Lesseps station which made it very easy for us to get to other parts of Barcelona, it was also within walking distance to Park Guell and the neighbourhood of Gracia where we went on the Festival of Sant Joan and was lucky enough to see a bonfire, fireworks and a free concert in Placa del Sol. It was also conveniently near many supermarkets so we could just pop down to get some things if we wanted to.
Overall, we had a very pleasant time in Barcelona and would really recommend this flat, particularly if you prefer to stay in a slightly quieter neighbourhood away from the loud hustle and bustle of the city centre. Thank you for having us Paz!
