The sisters were very accommodating in more ways than one. The residence is very clean and beautiful. It’s feel like an oasis in the middle of old historic neighborhood of Barcelona. The food variety was plenty, fresh, and delicious. The bedroom was comfortable and I slept very well. I love...

Once again, a most hospitable visit. This is a great location and whilst the accommodation is modest it’s good value and the sisters are charming. One improvement could be that guests could make a cup of tea or coffee independent of the breakfast service time.

I really enjoyed my stay and will recommend it to anyone wishing to spend few days in a basic quiet place in Barcelona. Sisters were super friendly and the man at the desk very helpful. I’ll definitely stay there again when I come back to Barcelona.

Everything was clean, the staff was friendly, breakfast not very extensive. Not being able to get a refund when I had to leave a day early is a negative, but I did understand that up front.
