Great response and communication from host, Andre. I didn't get to meet him but he arranged for Tatyana to meet us and give us a tour of the apartment. She didn't speak any English but luckily we spoke some broken Spanish. All the other comments pretty much cover it... Andre's apartment was beautiful and spotless. Beautifully decorated with a killer balcony view. We had coffee and breakfast there every morning and wine there every evening. The bed was very comfortable and clean. Both bathrooms were nice; the one downstairs is the only one with a shower. The elevator wasn't finished yet but that was fine with us. We used it as an excuse to have delicious desserts after dinner. Would def stay and recommend Andre's lovely penthouse apartment if staying in Barcelona. Centrally located and beautiful area to walk.
