I booked this property because of the wonderful reviews it received. Now, I get to write a wonderful review as well - my only regret is that I am not at the apartment but back home from vacation. My husband, brother-in-law and girlfriend went to Spain for two weeks on a bike trip in the south of Spain and wanted to spend a few days in Barcelona at the end of our trip. We LOVED our apartment for so many reasons. It was easy to get around the entire city by metro, cab and by foot. It was very well located but on a quiet street with our own pedestrian mall filled with shops, stores, groceries, bakeries, and restaurants. We ate breakfast every morning from our balcony having bought groceries downstairs, and ate way too many chocolate pastries and fresh bread from our neighborhood bakery. The apartment was beautiful, clean, well appointed, and designed for privacy and big enough to want to spend time there when not touring. But best of all were the owners of this wonderful apartment - Victor and family were ALWAYS available and responsive to any questions we had and were so helpful from the moment we contacted them about places to see, sights to take in, restaurants to eat at, calling a taxi for our ride to the airport and anything else. I can not say enough positive things about the family and the apartment. We have stayed at other VRBO properties and have had wonderful experiences (we also have a listing on VRBO) but this experience has exceeded all others. We hope that we have the opportunity to visit Barcelona again and we will look forward to "coming home" to our apartment in Barcelona. Thank you Victor and Family for making our final days in Spain so happy and comfortable! Melodye
Oh I would strongly suggest eating at the local restaurants on the pedestrian mall downstairs and check out Perdetta Restaurant - it's a must when in Barcelona!
