Appreciated: location, security, elevator, cleanliness, property manager communication. Could have been better: checking in awkward as female being separated from family; noisey neighbors disturbed sleep.

We traveled for the first time -as a family of 4- to Barcelona. Found the description of this condo on Vrbo to be accurate or to even exceed our expectations. Location of building is excellent, safe and convenient for a family, in the Eixample neighborhood. Only a 5-minute walk to La Sagrada Familia, 1 min away from the metro or a 15min bike ride to El Born or Gothic areas or to the beach! Also many great options for dining nearby either around the corner or down a 2-minute walk to a strip of restaurants with outside seating. A small convenience store is at the bottom of building to buy water, fruits, snacks, laundry detergent etc…there is an elevator to take you to the 5th floor where the flat is located. The inside of the apartment is spotless!! The owners have thought of almost everything to make our stay as a family convenient and comfortable. The apartment is very bright with a balcony and designed as a hallway with 3 rooms to your left: main bedroom with a Full/Queen size bed, bathroom and kitchen as you walk from the entrance door. The other smaller bedroom is located to the right of the living room and had bunk beds, perfect for our 12 and 14-year old boys. Small table outside the kitchen by the living room, comfortable sofas, TV, Netflix, internet. There are 2 AC units for hot days, one in the larger bedroom and the second just outside of the smaller bedroom within the living area. A clean bathroom/shower and a well-equipped kitchen with plates, cups, glasses (including wine glasses), wine opener, dish washing liquid, tea, coffee maker, toaster, large fridge/freezer and washing machine (which we used for 3 loads for our teens!). We line-dried all clothes on the balcony outside and on a rack provided in the kitchen that we placed on the balcony. The sunny hot weather and drying lines made it easier for us given that most Europeans do not use drying machines. All clothes were dry overnight. Communication with the owners was fast and easy. We used WhatsApp to inform them of our arrival at the airport and to meet up at the building for checkin at 2-3pm. Also easy to ask them for recommendations for reserving taxis or going around the city. There is a bike rental place about a 5-minute walk from the apartment. We rented bikes throughout our stay and biked all of Barcelona!! To Sagrada Familia, to the Center, to Picasso museum, and to the beach! Loved it and would definitely stay there again next time we visit!! Thank you Jorge & Daniel!!

Very lively and busy area of town that keeps going late into morning hours with Manu bakeries and Tapas bars within minutes...had to taxi to most attractions closer to the coast, but all cost less than $15eu...property was just as advertised and our host Jorge and Juana were very responsive and caring. Well equipped kitchen and appliances.

The location and status of this property are amazing. The local streets are lines with tree canopies and delicious restaurants. A few steps for the apartment is Gaudi’ Avenue, and views of La Sagrada Familia (just 3-4 blocks away). The apartment has all the conveniences one would need. The host, Jorge, was readily available and kindly courteous. I recommend staying here.

The apartment, the location and all the facilities were excellent. Jorge, was really helpful with all the questions we had about the apartment and the whereabouts. We had a very good experience.

We stayed at this apartment with our 2 adult children and it was great. Couldn’t be happier on the location next to metro bus ,taxis .The apartment was very clean and the owner was very helpful .Would recommend the apartment you will not be disappointed

This place in Barcelona is very nice, close to all the restaurants and Sagrada Família ! The place was very clean. The lower bunk bed mattress is a little worn out and needs to be replaced, otherwise highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Barcelona.

We loved this very clean unit so close to everything. Owners were very helpful and generous.

Wonderful location walking distance from metro, restaurants, grocery store, and La Sagrada Familia. Nice to have living room. Kitchen and bedrooms were fine. Two minor downsides were that there was daily construction in apartment building (mid April 2019) that was a little loud, and bathroom smelled bad no matter how much we cleaned it. Overall though, we were glad we stayed. Location couldn’t be beat.

Clean, organized, well-stocked, convenient apartment. Owner was communicative and helpful. The walls in the bedroom are thin, so noises from other apartments were a bit loud.

It was a great location near Sagrada Família. There is also a stop for the hop on/off bus right in front of the apartment. We used it several times throughout our stay. Everything was clean and we had everything you could need for a long stay. Jorge was incredibly nice and gave us so many restaurant recommendations. He even offered to pay us back if we didn’t like a restaurant he suggested. 7 Portas is by far the best restaurant, so he has no need to pay us back. He was right! 😁 we would definitely stay here again!

We stayed for 8 days, and were very pleased. The master bed is queen-sized, shower/tub has plenty of hot water, large living room with dining area is bright and airy, with two sets of sliders to small balcony. (The first week of October we didn't use the air conditioning, but liked having the fresh air, there was no street noise.) Everything is as pictured, renovated and clean, uncluttered, metro is a block away, and really easy to use to get everywhere. Hosts were very helpful. Definitely recommend it.

Daniel provided us with a warm reception and a map with helpful recommendations. Don’t miss the local restaurant next door. It’s a great value.

Jorge was very helpful and available, as well as giving information about what to visit. Would recommend staying here.

We enjoyed our stay in Barcelona from this wonderful apartment close to the Sagrada Familia and Metro. Jorge and Daniel were wonderful hosts giving us lots of good information in planning our stay and meeting us on the check-in day as well. They were very flexible as our flight was delayed. Though the rooms are a little small (our two adult sons slept in the bunk beds), we were there only to sleep and shower --- the rest of the time, we were out enjoying beautiful Barcelona! Would be a great property for a family with younger children. Lots of cafes and easy to walk neighborhood.

Stayed at Jorge's place in May 2018. Great location that's a 10-15 walk from Sagrada Familia. Their place was very comfortable except for the construction in the apartment above us. Really annoying that it started at 8am every day we were there and was very loud! Balcony was not usable due to the construction. Besides that inconvenience the place was clean, AC worked well, beds were comfortable, kitchen/bathroom were fine. Probably should have more detailed instructions on how to use the washing machine since that was not the easiest to figure out. Overall, a pretty decent place to stay.

This property was exactly as advertised. Nice open living space to relax in after a long day. Jorge and Daniel were very accommodating to deal with.

Nice property, great location, quiet street, close to metro.

Buen lugar, gran ubicación y una excelente atención del anfitrión. Gracias!

We were very happy with the apt itself and the hosts were wonderful... they met us at the apt when we arrived and they gave us great restaurant recommendations!!! the one negative was that the walls were a bit thin and we could hear the neighbors in the am yet they were all in bed early and it was very quiet in the evening. The area was nice! I would defiantly recommend it to a friend.

The owner who we met was great. He answered all of our questions. The apartment was excellent including things in the kitchen.. The metro was close.

We are a family of five, with three teenage sons, but this apartment was big enough for us with two boys sharing the sofa bed in the bright and airy living room. Great location 3 minutes from St Pau metro station (line 5) and only 5 mins walk to Spain's greatest attraction, La Sagrada Familia. Daniel and Jorges were great hosts, meeting us on arrival and checking everything was ok during our visit. Only one problem... 3 days and 4 nights is not long enough to enjoy Barcelona! I hope we will return...

Thank you for everything we really enjoyed our stay. In the flat the month of July the aircon was much appreciated and the balcony to take in the local residences and real life in Barcelona. Lots of life, animation and historical sites on the door step. Thank you to Jorge for all his help in making us feel welcome.

Location of property is good. Close to historic area but far enough away so that it is a bit quieter than being in the heart of the tourist area. Plenty of good restaurants and shopping for basics within steps of apartment. The apartment was clean and modern. Daniel was super helpful, pleasant and just a great host as he checked us in, gave recommendations for restaurants and sites to see and helped with taxis. Highly recommended

This apartment is bright and very well stocked with all you need for a lovely stay in a lovely neighborhood- some tourist spots close by, but also away from the mass tourist areas. Around the corner is a great supermarket and across the street is the Hospital St Croce St Pau. Magnificiant place to visit. Of course the not to be missed Sagrada Familia is just a short fun walk past shops and restaurants. Subway is a block away and on the L5 line that connects with so much. The lobby has been described as a little dark but don't let that deter you. The apartment looks like the photos, the staff greet you on arrival, everything is very clean and working. Very happy with our choice. Barcelona is beautiful...
