Clean and spacious apartment very well equipped for 6 people.

This apartment was very well maintained, clean and my family felt very safe staying here. I would recommend this property. One thing to note, it is not really within walking distance to most of the major sights (we used taxis to get around). However, I would not recommend booking this through VRBO. It's almost like the company is half using VRBO. I could not pay my final bill on VRBO and, also, it was not accurate - they charged me additional money for "tourism tax" at the end. It was difficult to access info and contact the company through VRBO as well. Also very inconvenient was that they expected me to come pick up the keys to check-in. I've never had to do that with a property before - no one wants to have to deal with that when they are exhausted after traveling and carrying all their luggage. I would highly recommend that they start meeting clients at the properties with keys. But the apartment itself was lovely and I would recommend it.

This place is as lovely and welcoming as it looks in the pictures. The living room and kitchen space are fantastic gathering areas to dine and hang out, as you plan your days ahead. Very closely located to the main train station, with 2 subway lines even closer. Quiet building served by only one tiny and slow elevator. If you opt to walk, it's 5 flights of stairs so take that into consideration when booking. As a family of four- me, my husband and our two boys (18 and 21 yo) the space was perfect. The boys went out at night and didn't wake us when they came back in the wee hours. It's a 3 bedroom/2 bath that could comfortably sleep 6. But you should note that the shower stalls are VERY small- typical in EU but tough for larger people to navigate. The beds were very comfy and the property was very clean. The kitchen had all you need for cooking/serving meals but no basics- salt, pepper, coffee, etc- were provided. Also, no ice trays. Again, that is common in the EU but Americans tend to like their ice. Washer was located on the terrace off the bath. It was small and we did not use it. The apartment looks out on to an old prison... it's no longer active and (I think) is now a museum. The one complaint- and you see it in nearly every review- is the key pick up. Though it was -in theory- easy to do, it was well out of the way and added extra cost in a cab (no Ubers in Spain) and extra time away from our vacation. We arrived via train, which was less than 2 blocks from the apartment. But it was a 15 min cab in heavy traffic to get to the place to get the key. All instructions for key pick up were easy and accurate, but it would be much easier if the key was made available AT the property. Property management was great with communications and correspondence, though we never met anyone in person. We would definitely stay here again, should our travels bring us back to BCN.

Overall this place is nice. Be aware of a few things before you stay. (1) understand the square footage, the pictures are as compared to the actual size (2) the only thing this place is really close to is the main train station Sants, a metro stop - a plus, and it overlooks a prison that is now a museum which is actually pretty cool. (3) VRBO does not handle the whole check in process which is a pain. You're required to travel to another part of Barcleona to get the key and the online checkin via the property manager was last minute and errored out a few times. (4) the third floor is actually the 5th which is typical in Spain. All that said, our family of 7 (including in-laws) had a nice time in this clean and overall nice place.

perfect place for perfect stay close to the metro station and groceries store

We really enjoyed our stay. It is a large apartment and had plenty of room for the four us, and was well appointed with many modern updates. It is located close to the main train station which was very convenient. We would definitely stay there again.

Great views nice decor off the beaten path, and the two bathrooms with laundry was great.Clean stocked with all basic kitchen needs no Street noise secure and easy access to anywhere .I understand why it remains booked.Plan ahead for this one.

Clean property. quiet building. perfect for families. close to city center and metro station.
