Hello, Hola and Bonjour to Everyone!
We're an Anglo-French couple that met here in BCN around 7 years ago. We're very outgoing, respectful and love a multicultural & diverse environment. We're used to meeting people from all over the world, so we're very happy to open our beautiful tranquil home to fellow like minded people.
In our house we have two room options!
1. Private double en suite: You'll have your own private double room within our living quarters with private en suite bathroom/shower, and also have access to a well maintained fully equipped kitchen, wifi, washing machine and all mod cons. The living room opens up onto a large terrace, boasting beautiful plants, dart board and panoramic mountain views!
2. The Basement Studio Sanctuary:
The sanctuary is a basement studio; entirely private, with a separate door and keys from our living quarters. It has bathroom, shower, kitchen, living space and a double bed, along with a sofa bed. Wifi is limited in this room as it is the basement of the property. Outside you'll find a quaint patio and a serene garden with panoramic mountain views! The garden is communal just with my partner and I, who, during your stay will just be there to feed the plants from time to time :)
**If renting the private double room, you will have full access to the terrace but not the basement garden, so as to maintain the privacy of our guests and therefore, if renting the basement studio you will have access to the garden, but not the terrace upstairs**
You'll find our house situated just outside of the centre, in the Carmel neighbourhood with fantastic bus connections (no.24, 22 and V19) running every 5 minutes (around 25-30 mins to the centre and placa catalunya), which also correspond with the metro lines - making it easy to get around the city whilst maintaining a calm atmosphere with unparalleled views of the city. The closest tourist attractions within walking distance are Gaudi's Park Guell (c. 10mins) and The Bunkers (5-10). You can also walk to the Sagrada familia in 25 minutes.
Whichever room you choose to stay in, all bed sheets and towels are provided :) Our basement studio is down two flights of stairs and not suitable for people with mobility issues.
We look forward to meeting you! Hasta Pronto!
