Firstly, the apartment is amazing, a real credit to Mike (the host) who has created a modern bolt hole to stay in Barcelona, yet sympathetically retaining the natural beautiful aesthetics of a very old building, complemented by the use of added lighting throughout.
The apartment is fully kitted out with all white goods, as well as the added touches left for you in the fridge which help on your first arrival, water, milk, juice and wine.

Mike sends you details of places to visit and to eat and is constantly in touch to ensure your visit runs smooth.

The location is situated very close to the Bohemian area of Carrer De BLAI , a great area for eating or drinking in many of the tapas bars or restaurants and with many cultures living happily as one. Within a short distance of the Metro, a great way to move around the city to see all the major hot spots such as Sagrada Familia, La Pedrera etc etc and yet only 20mins walk to the Olympic Stadium and the National Museum of Art and the Magic Fountain. So much to see and to take in, we will be back as we couldn't fit it all in this time and so we will ask to return to this apartment in the future.

One thing I will say, remember Barcelona is a major city, live like the Cataloians as the the place operates 24hrs a day to keep the place clean and tidy, your sleep pattern maybe affected but go with the flow, trust me it's worth it!

So if you have got this far reading our review and still wondering is this place for 'me'? .......Go for it, we loved the apartment, the location and we fell in love with not only the kind people of Barcelona but the city its self. Enjoy your stay....we did :)
