The property was well located for our needs/wants. The towels were shabby and need to be replaced. There was no coffee maker so we used instant and needed the kettle. However, the kettle lid was missing a handle so we filled it via the spout. Could not reheat the coffee as the microwave was missing the bottom glass tray. Details like towels and the ability to make coffee are important. Would not stay at this unit again as it appears someone is not paying attention.

The place was very nice overal. They let us store our bags early and were prompt in responding to messages. The place was clean and located in a central location. The only observation I had otherwise was that there was a slight foul smell that was coming from either one of the bathrooms or the kitchen.

Great location Idea for friends and family Host was fantastic Clean, modern would highly recommend

Nine friends and I stayed here for a girly weekend. The apartment was perfect and very close to las ramblas. Bit of a trek to the beach but easy metro access. Great apartment and couldn't have been easier.

Luis, the owner of the property was really amazing. He met us at the property, gave us a tour and gave us some really great ideas about what to do in the city and where to eat. Unfortunately the house was a disappointment. I rent my home in San Diego, CA and I make sure my guests have comfortable beds. All of the beds are absolutely horrid. Each night I had to fight to find a spot where I didn't have a spring poking me somewhere. They had bath towels but there were no hand towels or wash cloths. The lights in both bathrooms went out and the shower in the front bath splashed water everywhere. You had to use the hand held attachment to shower so you didn't have a pool of water to clean up. The blow dryer didnt' work and the noise from the street was super loud. I had ear plugs but the other girls suffered thru it. I feel bad writing this review because Luis was so wonderful but I would want to know.

The apartment is spacious, attractive and well located with the added bonus of balconies leading off each bedroom, which gave great views onto the busy intersection below (although this might be a cause for concern if you have very young children). It has been sympathetically renovated with some original features, such as doors and shutters adding to the overall stylish accommodation. We were however, rather disappointed by the condition of some appliances and furnishings. For example, we discovered during the early hours of the first night that the bed in our chosen bedroom (there were several bedrooms and only two of us, a mature couple) had a missing slat in the bed base and the mattress had sunk through, causing severe backache! The chest of drawers in the hall was also broken and some of the bedspreads were stained. The electric radiator in the bathroom did not work and many of the light bulbs needed replacing, including in both bathrooms, but no lightbulbs were to be found. This made shaving a nightmare. We arrived to find large drying racks on each of the balconies, piled with sheets and nowhere to store the drying racks except in the bedrooms ( not such a problem for us but unattractive if all the bedrooms were in use). The worst part was the growing smell from the bathrooms which we think was caused either by a damp dirty mat which was glued down, or by the floor being cleaned by a smelly mop. By the end of the week the smell had worsened and with no bathroom heating, made showering an unpleasant experience, especially in poor light. All of these issues could have been avoided with a little more attention to detail, which was a shame because the apartment has everything for a perfect stay. And yes, it is noisy at night and there are a couple of sex shops but this is a vibrant, diverse city and we felt very safe and loved the neighbourhood. Everyone was very friendly and we had a great time in Barcelona, which has some great restaurants and live music. We also caught the train to Sitges for the day and would recommend this if you have time.

This was our first visit to Barcelona. We were traveling with our adult children and our aunt, five total and we were very comfortable in this setting. The manager came by to show us how to use the different appliances in the apartment. We were able to wash our clothes and do a lot of cooking in the apartment. There were many grocery stores and a pharmacy within a block. At night we could hear some of the activity at the street level but it did not disturb us. The location was great, within walking distance to many attractions. We really enjoyed being able to walk to The Ramblas, to the Barri Gothi, and to Barceloneta. We were able to take the hop on - hop off bus at the center, also within walking distance. After going on the bus, we realized that many of the main attractions are within walking distance. This would be a place I would come back to in the future.
