Manuel’s apartment and gorgeous rooftop terrace were the perfect place for us to land each evening after a day of adventures across Barcelona. The location is away from the busiest areas, but close enough to get to the major tourist attractions quickly and easily. My daughter and I LOVED the fact that we were steps away from an absolutely delicious bakery where we could fuel up on fabulous pastries and bocadillos (small sandwiches), and a fresh squeezed orange juice or a cappuccino, every morning before heading out to the “big city”. There’s also a fantastic wine bar, great restaurants, and a variety of shops and markets all on the same street— just steps away from out little haven. The shower is awesome, the bed super comfortable, and kitchen filled with anything you might need or want to cook with. Manuel is so kind and accommodating— available for questions and recommendations with a quick and friendly response each time. I would recommend his place to anyone visiting Barcelona.
