I can’t say enough great things about our Airbnb in Barcelona! We have stayed an Airbnb’s around the world including Australia, San Francisco, Hawaii, etc. and I have to say that Marta and Cesc were the friendliest most attentive house we have ever had!
The information they provided about how to get around Barcelona, restaurants in the area and recommendations were top-notch.
I had to reach out to them and they always assured us that it was never a bother and they were always willing to help. My son lost his phone in a taxi cab and they helped us get the local numbers etc. They are so friendly when they greet you and thoroughly show you around. Their information binder is the best I’ve ever seen as well with pictures and how twos that save you time and frustration.
The Airbnb itself was adorable! I would stay there again in a heartbeat and recommend it to family and friends. It was fully stocked with everything that you need and more and so tastefully decorated as well. We loved having our teenagers on the main floor and us having a private suite upstairs with our own bathroom and accessible by an elevator! We stayed right after departing from a cruise and so the washer was priceless and gave us a second wardrobe for our stay.
The kids are happy to have Wi-Fi and a smart TV
The location is perfect for a family or somebody wanting a central but quiet stay. The little street of about 20 homes is gated and very safe and quiet. I enjoy the morning coffee and a nightly glass of wine on the veranda
It was two blocks away from Sagrada Familia and steps to 2 delicious bakeries where we got our morning croissants and goodies. The street corner was a taxi stop which was easy to grab every day to get to where we wanted to go around the city. We found the taxi prices cheap compared to Canada and paid about $10 to most places we had to go such as Gothic quarters, La Rambla, the beach etc. all places were under $20
The only reason why I gave it a four-star for cleanliness was there were fruit flies in the kitchen when we arrived but probably no fault of theirs and I believe they were from the dishwasher probably from the last guests. My only suggestion that I mentioned was that the upstairs suit bed was A little too firm for us but could easily be rectified with either a new mattress or even a padding top. This might be customary in Spain to have a more firm bed as well but coming from Canada we did notice a difference.
Again, We cannot say enough great things about the hosts and the Airbnb and would recommend them and use them again in a heartbeat.
Thank you again Marta and Cesc
