The four of us loved our stay in Barcelona and at Javier's apartment. It was very comfortable, clean as a whistle, located in a quaint, safe neighborhood. Seeing the people and the children playing just below the balcony was a delight each day. There was easy access to supermarkets, and we LOVED a place only a block away that had the most delicious bread for early morning breakfast. Javier (the staff person, not the owner), was there to greet us warmly right on time. He stayed answering all our questions and was delightful. Javier (the host) was very responsive to our emails and our one telephone call alerting him of our arrival plans. We would love to stay there again if we return to Barcelona. Thank you Javier!
