Mariana and Ramón’s place had the “wow factor” right when we came through the door. The apartment has great character in the decor but great functionality as well. The bed linens and towels were provided and very clean. We are a family of four and we had alot of luggage, but we found the space perfect for fitting all our things. We had a surprise cleaning that we didn’t expect but we greatly appreciated in the middle of our stay.
The location was also amazing, the taxis were stationed right on the corner of the street, restaurants and shops were all along the street just downstairs or walking distance. Also very close, two supermarkets and a farmacy. For that week we felt like residents of Barcelona!
The only downsides we found were:
1. They don’t actually have a dryer for the clothes if you are going to wash, they just have a washer.
2. In the night there were some noises in the apartment that might wake up light sleepers like us. In the master there was a plumbing line coming down the wall that made a knocking sound pretty loud.
Regardless of this, we would recommend this apartment and definitely return if ever in Barcelona again.
