We were greeted by Gary's mother, who is a friendly woman with lots of great tips for restaurants, etc around the area. Gary's directions were perfect. The flat is so clean and comfortable we didn't want to leave. The flat is close to the tourist sights but not in a touristy area. It was perfect. Antonio's restaurant is just down the street and was recommended by Gary's mother. We had the plate of the day and it was fantastic. Paella, pork with whiskey sauce, dessert and a drink for less than 9 euros! Perfect place for our first lunch. Maribel's recommendation to buy the cathedral ticket at the Salvador church (also gets you entrance to the cathedral) also worked out well. We had pizza one night at Mia ?again, just steps from the door and it was also good and cheap. We walked to the Plaza de España one day, which is also very manageable from the flat. Book this place and you won't regret it! Thank you Gary!
