This is a wonderful apartment in a perfect neighborhood for exploring Barcelona. Easy walking distance to several tourist stops (including Sagrada Familia and Casa Mila), some great neighborhood restaurants,... read more groceries, three public markets and two different metro lines.
We were two families, ten total people, each with children (ages 8-18) - there was plenty of room to sleep and spread out. Kitchen is well outfitted. For an urban apartment especially this was a great space and top location in Eixample.
Marc is extremely helpful and a very good communicator. He had great recommendations and arranged airport transportation for us.
Highly highly recommended.

What 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!

The apartment is spacious, full of light and nicely decorated.
Can’t think of anything that could have... read more been better.
Very nice location. Grocery store right in front of the apartment (and many others around).
Would love to stay here again.

A snooty landlord doesn't let you have fun in the apartment every moment complains about a million things that didn't happen at all, looks for all kinds of reasons to... read more charge more in the end.. takes pictures of basic things of a drop of dirt and asks for a thousand euro fine for cleaning that has already been paid in advance money for cleaning . Ruined our vacation every moment, notifications about noise even when we were not in the apartment, just an annoying landlord, not recommended at all, what's more, the apartment is not like the pictures at all.

I highly recommend Marc’s apartment! My family and I recently stayed there. We were a party of 6 and had more than plenty of room. We... read more even had a bedroom to spare. It’s family friendly / kid friendly.
Marc was a wonderful host! He’s very attentive and is a huge help with recommendations. He also responds very quickly to messages / questions.
Marc’s apartment is in a great location with great restaurants and attractions nearby. It’s an easy 15-minute stroll to Sagrada Familia. The apartment has two balconettes facing the street and a bigger balcony facing an interior patio. Our son loved playing in the playground in the patio. Also, the kitchen was completely equipped. We cooked several times and had everything we needed.
I can’t say enough good things about this apartment. I would stay there again!

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.

This apartment was great for our family of 10. We had 8 adults and 2 kids and it was great. The bus stop is right out front and takes you... read more straight into the gothic quarter. We also loved the nearby restaurants. The AC worked well in the bedrooms too. Marc was a wonderful host. Very communicative. He had the two baby beds set up right when we got there. Overall, great place, especially for the price.
