Marcela was an absolutely amazing host. Her apartment is beautifully decorated, like out of a magazine. In front of a beautiful park in the most luxurious and safe neighborhood in Barcelona. The apartment is within walking distance of any transportation, wether its public, or the tour buses. She had information ready for us, including maps and saving coupons. I went with my nine year old daughter and she even had coloring pencils and paper for her. It was such a thoughtful gesture. On our second night she made the most amazing seafood paella and we had dinner together. It was like staying at a friend's house. Our departure was at 5am on a Saturday and she even booked our taxi the day before. A five star hotel wouldn't give us the attention Marcela did. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
