My family of four stayed at Eloy and Maria's property in the Eixample for about two months. They were excellent hosts and the apartment was absolutely great. It was clean, very bright, spacious, well appointed, and tastefully furnished. The air conditioning was highly appreciated as we stayed during summer months, when Barcelona can be sticky.
The location in the Eixample was ideal for convenient access to public transportation (buses, Metro, regional train) as well as several Gaudi attractions. It was in the city, close to all the food and shopping conveniences, but away slightly from the hordes of tourists. There is a nice market that is 5 minutes on foot for all your fresh food needs. There are several craft beer stores in the area, restaurants abound, and two superb gelateria's within 10 - 15 minutes walk.
The focal point of the apartment is the bright, living/dining room with nice furnishings. An enclosed balcony is attached to the living room. The windows can be opened to look down into the cute courtyard that is a common feature of the Eixample district. The large bedroom is spacious and nicely furnished. A smaller bedroom with two beds is great for young kids to share and the third bedroom is quite a bit smaller but still very comfortable. For a family of four, it was nice to have a full bath and a spare half bath as necessary.The kitchen has all that is needed to cook your meals and enjoy apartment living including fridge, oven, stovetop, microwave, dishwasher, hot water maker, several different coffee making appliances, and more. The laundry room near the entrance with modern washer, dryer, and ironing supplies was also greatly appreciated.
My interaction was mostly with Eloy. He was very responsive to all our requests and made sure that the apartment was in tip-top shape for the duration of our stay. He gave us a great overview of the apartment, features, city attractions, transportation, and other information.
