Raul and Carmen’s Barcelona apartment was the perfect place to stay. Situated in a lovely central neighborhood surrounded by blocks of pedestrian streets filled with shops and restaurants, everything we could want was always nearby. The apartment itself was beautifully decorated and appointed with everything we could need and more. The beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable and the rooftop terrace was an absolute treat to spend time on in the evenings. Best of all was the genuine kindness and thoughtfulness of our gracious host, Raul. Even before our arrival in Barcelona, Raul sent us information about places to see and things to do in his beloved city, including links to pre-purchase tickets. When we arrived, not only did he pick us up at the train station, he gave us a driving tour of the city on the way to the apartment. He settled us into the apartment and gave us a map along with details of how to navigate to the various sites we would be visiting. To further welcome us, an overflowing fruit basket and bottle of wine was waiting on the dining table. When it was finally time to leave, Raul insisted on taking us to the airport. If we visit Barcelona again in the future we hope to be able to stay in this incredible apartment. Much appreciation and gratitude to Raul for making our stay in Barcelona extra special by going above and beyond in every way imaginable!!! Abrazos : )

What a marvelous stay from start to finish! These hosts be have gone above and beyond. Their lovely apartment was the ultimate base from which to navigate this beautiful city.All of their recommendations were spot on and as we did not get to experience all of them, of course another visit is a necessity.

Raul was absolutely fantastic from communication, pick up at the airport, the fruit and wine basket, and maps with details for how to get around and suggestions as to where to eat. There could not possibly be a better host anywhere!

Fantastic apartment, spacious and exceptionally well equipped. Great location for exploring. Supermarket and bakery nearby. Lots of restaurants and cafes. Area felt very safe. Large sunny balcony. Raul and Carmen really went the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed and knew how to get around the city. Excellent communication from start to finish. Highly recommend a stay here.
