Alex was a great host. He was there to greet us whwn we arrived and proceeded to give us a great overview of the neighborhood, recommending restaurants, shops and lots of interesting sites too.
The apartment is absolutely great, very modern, clean and charming, with all the appliances you can ever wish for. I would say it is the best apartment I've ever come across in my Airbnb experiences.
The location is also great, in a residential but lively part of Barcelona, well connected by metro and within walking distance to "Sagrada Familia".
Highly recommended.
