Alex is an amazing host and his apartment couldn't be better. He's exceptionally warm, welcoming, and helpful. He checked in via text several time during our stay--once to explain a festival that took place while we were visiting. The apartment is immaculate and has everything you need--including a clothes dryer! The beds were very comfortable and the interior design aesthetic is wonderful. It's in a great location with a beautiful market 2 blocks away. It's also within easy walking distance to many of Barcelona's highlights--including some great restaurants. I highly recommend Alex and his apartment, and will stay there again when I return to Barcelona!
