Stayed here with friends for a big event, amazing location and well kept

Location,, size, amenities and more.

The flat is nicely laid-out, with two bedrooms, small bathroom, nicely furnished living room and small kitchen area. The flat could use a little more decoration - nothing on the walls except for a rather large and garish "Barcelona" logo which lights up when turned on! Check-in requires stopping at the rental office of "Friendly Rentals", about a 10 minute walk from the property. Since this name is not identified in any of the pre-trip documents, it can be hard to know you're in the right place, since it is in a large office building. Once there, it resembles a rental car check-in counter, with sometimes quite a few people in front of you, some taking a LONG time to check in. All of my previous VRBO rentals have involved a representative meeting us at the property, which is much preferable to this arrangement. In the flat there were NO instructions on anything - no manuals or descriptions of how to use the various appliances including the TV . There was no "house manual" describing not only the amenities in the flat but also nearby food markets, restaurants, etc. Zero information on how to use the many recycling trash bins and when and where to take out the trash. Again, never had a rental before that failed to include this information. Cable TV is VERY basic - no cable news channels and no premium channels of any kind. On the other hand, wi-fi was outstanding! The flat is on the fifth floor. There is a lift, but first you have to walk up 26 steps in a narrow stairwell to get to the lift! But overall, its a nice place. The location just off La Rambla but on a quite pedestrian street, is ideal, the beds are comfortable and the furniture is good.

The apartments were very nice and Philip was a good host.

Apartments were clean and very spacious, perfect for a big group (we stayed in 4 apartments in this building). Great location, walking distance toRamblas, 5 minute walk to closest metro station, bars and restaurants around. Definitely recommend staying here if you want to be in he middle of town!

Excellent well positioned apartments. Good value. Modern and well furnished. Nice kitchens. Very friendly relaxed host. Good communications. Everything works!

When I’m traveling I want to make sure that my accommodations are comfortable and this property definitely lived up to my expectations. The hosts were friendly and responsive. The apartments itself were conveniently located across the metro station but also within walking distance to Las Ramblas. There were restaurants and 1 min away. The washer and dryer were very convenient for laundry. Overall a cozy home to experience Barcelona!!

Could not have asked for a more perfect location in Barcelona. There were 8 of us and it was so convenient never had to taxi anywhere. Apartments were very well laid out for 4 couples to be comfortable. The bathrooms were impressively clean on arrival. We had wifi and a beautiful towel display in the main beds on arrival. Thank you.
