Our stay in Alex's apartment was great in Barcelona. We didn't meet Alex in person but communicated online. He had a sweet host to guide us through our stay and give us plently of recommendations on transportation, sights to see, eats and local markets for water, etc. that we needed. She was available for us when we had any questions and also provided us a call to order a taxi when we left. Alex's place is very convenient and perfect location just 10 mins of walking to the Sagrada Familia and another 15 mins walking to Examiple shopping districts with also amazing restaurants to eat. Also, there is a elevator available for easy access to transport your luggage which is a huge great help!
