Sylvie is one of the best hosts I have ever met via Airbnb. We arrived her place a bit late on the first day yet she managed to give us an introduction to the city and helped us to book some tickets online. This helps us a lot in the following days. Her apartment feels like home to us and it is located to the old downtown Barcelona. So it is surrounded by dining places and small pedestrian shopping lanes for tourists like us to explore. Highly recommend it!
