The property was in the perfect location and the hosts were quick with communication! The rooms where cleanly and beautiful.

Great property in a great area! Close walking distance to everything. Will definitely stay again.

Excellent response and customer service! This house was in a great location with a super market next door. Easy to walk around and to get to the rail system. We loved our stay!!
4.8
Great little apartment in a great location. We loved opening the windows into a charming courtyard to let in the fresh spring air and enjoy local gardens! The location is excellent - within walking distance to most of the city's major attractions as well as great food and shopping. The host was completely accessible - even on Easter weekend. Would definitely book again!
4.8
We very much enjoyed this apartment. It is big and quiet and faces a large interior courtyard. Very convenient to have large supermarket just doors away and easy to walk to restaurants and attractions. Management company was easy to deal with and allowed us to extend stay when plans changed with no hassle. Would definitely rent again!

It was very nice and with the two bathrooms absolutely ok for 6 people. We stayed there with three couples and had a good time. The only thing I would like to mention is that 6 big towels and two small ones for six persons and 5 days isn’t enough. Also it has to be clear that dishwasher tabs and towels to dry dishes are not included (well there was one tab). For this price I definitely expected a little more. Kitchen equipment does last for one meal than you need to put it into the dishwasher or clean it up by hand. So, much water is needed, as the dishwasher is never full. But well, it’s still a nice place and we would come back and recommend this apartment anyway. You are a just a 10minutes walk away from plaza catalunya, if you walk slowly. Metro is close and the super market just beside the main door. Couldn’t be better situated.

This is a great location. The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom was very quiet and the windows opening created a lot of breeze. The grocery store and cafe within feet was so convenient. The link for unlocking the outside door and inside door was seamless. we all had access on our phones to open the doors.

The flat was perfect for our group of two families of three. It was spacious and well-equipped, with plenty of space for cooking, eating, hanging out. The two bathrooms were very nice, and the washer and dryer were also very nice to have. The Gothic Quarter is blocks away, and there is a Supermercado literally next door. The Gaudi houses are walking distance (20 mins) and there are countless places to grab a quick meal or to linger over lunch or dinner within a block of the flat. Comfortable beds, lovely balcony overlooking a courtyard, taxi stand less than a block away, high ceilings, four table fans to help with the summer heat. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The apartment was clean, well equipped and decorated very nicely. Plenty of space and comfortable beds. Loved the location. Would definitely book again!

Check in was easy as we met the host at the apartment and they allowed us to check in a few hours early.
The apartment had fresh sheets and towels but the floors and counters were not clean. The counters had many hairs on them and we had to sweep the floors as they were visibly dirty.
During the 4 night stay we had no WiFi connectivity. The host said it was a building problem, not a unit problem.
The unit does NOT have air conditioning, even with the temps being in the 70s the unit was very hot during our stay. AC is not listed as an amenity, we only assumed it was included. Our bad here.
It was the first short term rental I have stayed at where they left nothing to make your holiday easier. No extra garbage bags, paper towels, spices, cleaning supplies or dish detergent.
The pictures listed on the app are outdated and most of the furniture is no longer in the apartment. The furniture that remains is filthy and stained.
This is a very expensive apartment, not worth the cost. I am sure you can find a nicer and better equipped short term rental in Barcelona.

We loved our home away from home in Barcelona! The apartment was in a great location on the edge of El Born and the Gothic quarter and very close to the cafes and boutiques of the Eixample neighborhood. It was a great base for exploring all that the city had to offer. The apartment was spacious enough for a family of 4 and had all the amenities we needed. Highly recommend it!
4.8
Plenty of room for our family of five. Property would benefit from a deep clean. Furniture looks well used and could use an upgrade. Also, there were not enough dishes and glassware.
4.8
Great apartment, great location. You feel like a local staying here; walking distance to many attractions, shopping, dining, etc. Close to subway/metro. We were robbed so that was a bummer, but couldn’t ruin our trip.
4.8
Where to start? I think first and foremost the location. This apartment is just a few short blocks from La Plaça Catalunya/La Rambla but it has none of the crowded madness. There is a full grocery store (mercado) literally next door, and infinite cafés and restaurants stretching out in all directions. The accomodations are fairly no-nonsense but clean, spacious and comfortable, and having two bathrooms was especially useful. The apartment is on the 4th floor (there is an elevator) and opens over a large, quiet courtyard rather than the street. Communication with the host was thorough and responsive from the moment we booked until the end of our stay. The wifi was excellent and the e-entry seamless for both the front door and apartment door. Highly recommended!
4.8
The apartment was exactly as described. Easy access to the gothic quarter without the crowds. A pleasant surprise was that the grocery store next door was large and very clean. Beds were very comfortable and wifi was strong. Electronic entrance was not difficult and the elevator was welcome for this 4th floor apartment. We were concerned the view out the windows would not be good but we were wrong. Finally restaurants in the area were good, especially El Mercat which had a popular local vibe. Would stay here again for sure!!
4.8
The apartment is only a short walk from many of Barcelona's best areas, including the Gothic Quarter, Citadel Park, Boqueria Market, and the water front. We only used taxis for our trips to La Sagrada Familia, Guell Park, and the Barcelona train station. We would definitely stay at this property again.
4.8
Our family of 6 stayed here for 5 days (kids ages 15-19) and really enjoyed it! Very cute building, clean and comfortable and you cannot beat the location! We were within walking distance to everything we wanted to see...didn't need to rent a car. Lots of cafes and shops and restaurants very close by and the grocery store is litterally 5 steps out the door. Check in was easy and we all enjoyed our stay very much!
