Jesus and his wife were lovely hosts and the apartment was very much like it appears in the pictures. We were very happy with our choice to stay there. The building is built into the side of a hill, so when you walk down the stairs to the apartment's front door, it feels like you're descending into a basement apartment. But once you go inside, it is beautifully light and airy. It was nice to have two separate bedrooms -- one with a queen/king sized bed on the main floor, and then two twins in the room downstairs. The patio was lovely and a nice place to eat breakfast. We appreciated all of the small touches that Jesus has thought of -- providing laundry soap for the washing machine, plenty of towels and bedding, cooking oils and spices, tea, etc. You could really stay here for an extended visit with no problem. Since we were traveling by car, we also greatly appreciated the FREE parking included in the apartment price. The garage is down the street a bit, but you can stop close to the house to unload your bags before parking down at the secure garage. The only thing you would want to know in advance is that this area is a bit far from central Barcelona for sightseeing -- maybe 20-30 minutes on the bus (maybe less by metro). The bus stop is just outside the apartment and the metro stop probably less than a block away, so it was very easy to catch the bus/metro into downtown or into the more active neighborhood area of Gracia. We definitely recommend, and think it's an excellent value especially for people with a couple kids and a car.
