This is a gem of a place!! The location is absolutely perfect- right around the corner from transportation, restaurants, and walking distance to the Diagonal with lots of shops.... read more There's even a grocery store right across the street! The place looks large in pictures, but it's even more spacious in person! It's huge! We had a family of 6 be able to spread out with more than enough space for sleeping, lounging and eating. It's also spotless, airy and bright and felt updated and comfortable. All the amenities you can ask for with a full kitchen plus a washer and dryer. (There's also a printer which we didn't think we would need but ended up being a lifesaver printing out our covid negative test results and other forms for traveling back to the US!) Marc was absolutely fantastic to work with- he is kind and always available (even at 10pm at night when we ran out of printer ink!). We traded texts back and forth before arrival and he gave us sight seeing suggestions and thoughts about what we needed to book in advance and we are so grateful for this otherwise we would have missed out on the Sagrada Familia. Staying here really added to our enjoyment of our Barcelona vacation- it was really a perfect place. Trust me, don't wait- just book this or you will miss out on this amazing airbnb!!

We are a group of 11 persons, and we stayed in Barcelona @ Marc’s place 4 days. There was enough room for all of us and the position of the... read more apartment also suited as well. Communication with Marc was really easy and natural, that was really nice, gave me a familliar feeling.
22 agosto, 2021We are a family of 8 adults and one toddler and stayed for a week in this apartment and it was outstanding in all aspects. We've stayed in alot... read more of Airbnbs and often find old, worn out furniture or just a lack of furniture. This is one of the rare places that is actually like a real family's apartment that we borrowed for a week: beautiful, fully furnished, including all needs for the baby (toys too!). Plenty of dishes and silverware. Very clean. Marc is very responsive and helpful. There are a number of tourist maps and books in the house. The location is great - a few blocks from Passeig de Gracia, Casa Mila and Casa Batllo, lots of restaurants and grocery stores within a 5 minute walk. 2 Metro stops within 10 minutes. With a big group, having 2.5 baths was a huge help. Entry is electronic so everyone was able to put the link on their phones so no worries about who had the key. Highly recommend this apartment if you are going to Barcelona.

Marc's place was awesome. Very centrally located with everything a 20 minute or less walk. The apartment was very spacious, clean, nicely furnished and perfect for our group of... read more 8. It was quiet and we loved sitting on the balcony for our morning tea. There were so many great restaurants within a block of the apartment. The "magic key" to the building and apartment was so terrific for our group of 8, we loaded it on our phones so everyone had a key and could come and go as they pleased - really great feature. We really enjoyed everything about our stay and Marc was terrific with communication. Also, we really appreciated that he let us store our luggage in the apartment until we could get in later in the day. We highly recommend Marc's place.
3 abril, 2023Marc’s place was exactly as the pictures show. It was very big. Great for many families and groups. We loved our stay. Very centrally located as well!
17 febrero, 2024What a magical place! Spacious and comfortable apartment in a beautiful city. Very clean and open, this is a great place for families to stay. Marc has thought of everything,... read more every detail, extra materials for guests, brochures are placed tactfully so guests can get ideas of what to do in the city, maps available for travel throughout the city, laundry supplies, kitchen fully stocked, cribs and extra sheets, etc. the beds were comfortable and the layout of the apartment is perfectly set up, social spaces are separate from most of the bedrooms so when some family members want to sleep, there is a separation and they are are not disturbed by the family members towards the front of the apartment in the living or dining rooms. Kitchen is big and is good for light cooking. While we were there the stove gave us a little trouble but it can be easily managed. Overall, when I return to Barcelona, I would hope Marc would allow my family and I to stay again. One of the best trips of my life!
