I stayed at Charo's apartment for 6 months. Even though I never met her in person, she was a very reliable host from the beginning to the end. She always replied quickly to emails in case any issues arose.
The apartment is located in a quiet street close to Rambla del Poblenou and very close to the beach. It has a spacious living room with an attached kitchen, two bedrooms (the small one is without windows though) and a small bathroom (small tub with shower). The little rooftop terrace is gorgeous. Heating and airconditioning are both working adequately. Overall, I had a great stay there and can absolutely recommend this place!.

Charo’s apartment in Poble Nou was just as it is described; a wonderful place to stay in Barcelona. We found the apartment very comfortable, quiet, well fitted-out and attractive. The bed is comfortable, water pressure fine, and there’s a striking view from the shower window. The aprtament is located in a delightful precinct. Charo helpfully referred us to excellent restaurants and bars nearby, the more we looked the more charming and rewarding the precinct became. The apartment is easy walking distance from the Poble Nou Ramblas and surrounds, with lovely restaurants, bars and other shopping, including local food markets and supermarkets, and walking distance also from the Metro Line 4. We were there on holidays for a little over 4 weeks and enjoyed exploring Barcelona on the variety of public buses, also easily accessible and frequent nearby the apartment. The apartment is also easy walking distance from Bogotel beach where we swam most days; the weather in mid-late September was perfect, the water clean, warm and beautiful for swimming. Both public and private bicycle hire is available nearby, and the terrain and traffic (light in Poble Nou) ideal for bikes. The Poble Nou Ramblas are lively an interesting, there seems to be a festival of some kind popping up at every opportunity, Catalan cultural activities are well represented. Central Barcelona and all the popular tourist and traveller destinations are easy to get to on public transport and it seemed to us ideal to be living a little removed from the intensely built up tourism precincts of central Barcelona and the gothic city.

We have just completed a wonderful two month stay in Charo's apartment. The location was perfect for us with easy access to shops, restaurants, bars and the beach. There is also a choice of bus routes and a metro line nearby. The apartment is clean, comfortable and well-equipped and has a lovely sunny terrace. We communicated with Charo by email and everything went smoothly. We had a completely hassle-free experience and hope to return in the future.

My wife Monika & myself stayed the month of Sep´15 inhabiting Charo´s lovely apartment. It´s a wonderfull location, in terms of neighborhood especially regarding accessibility to beach, rambla poble nou & metro/bus - everything in walking distance. Charo often responded to mails within minutes too, a perfect host to deal with - In words - Excellent!

I spent a heavenly 4 months in Charo's charming apartment which is just as advertised. It is a less than ten minute walk to the beach and, while on an extremely quiet and peaceful street, is a five minute walk from the lively Rambla de Poblenou with its many shops, markets and cafes. It is also an easy metro, bus or bike ride into the center of Barcelona. I never met Charo in person but she was extremely helpful and responded immediately to any small question we had or problem we encountered. I would definitely aim to stay there again.
