Great location but...

The location was great and there is lots of space. Check in was smooth and communication was good. There were issues with the leaking shower doors and odor from the main hallway bath that was an ongoing problem. We were unable to get the heat to work and remained cold throughout our stay. There was one extra blanket in the entire apartment. We reached out with these issues on our first day and got an immediate response that they would have the housekeeping and maintenance staff come and look but no one came during the remaining 7 days of our stay. These were issues that were commented on in reviews that were over a year old that continue. Once these concerns are addressed it will be a great place.

Harrowing "keyless entry" process

Once we finally gained entrance (very time consuming and taxing) and were not captive in the apartment, all was fine. Accommodation was very spacious, albeit utilitarian, but all was okay.

Sounds like a great apartment but please be aware of several issues

Rented this apartment for a few days in May 2023. The apartment is in an awesome location for the various sites in Barcelona. The Picasso Museum, La Sagrada Familia, Aquarium, La Boqueria are all within walking distance. The apartment is quite large as well. However, after we first arrived the reality set in. 1. The heating and air conditioning doesn’t work. The time we were there the outside temperature at night was in the 50’s so the apartment got into the low 60’s at night. There are no extra blankets in any of the rooms, so we were unable to stay warm in order to get any sleep. 2. The shower in the master bathroom has a leak in the floor near the toilet that causes water to leak all over the bathroom floor from taking a shower making it unusable. 3. The bathroom in the center hallway smells of sewer gas coming in through the laundry area that ends up permeating throughout all the bathrooms in apartment as well as the central hallway. This makes this bathroom also unusable. It also gave my wife and son a headache because of the smell in the apartment. 4. The apartment upstairs from this unit has a family that is extremely LOUD!!!!! There was a soccer tournament going on during our stay so every night we had the pleasure of hearing their TV blasting at full volume a baby crying, kids running around, and the husband and wife arguing with each other until 3am. 5. There are no holders for the toilet paper in the bathrooms so you have to leave the rolls on the floor. 6. There

Great location!

Great location in the center of all the major sights & museums. Lots of restaurants in the neighborhood and a wonderful coffee shop at our doorstep. The only problem was the air conditioning….it was a bit warm in the apartment and did not cool down even at night. If that gets fixed, then we highly recommend this apartment!

Wonderful - A Few Issues

The place is huge, lot's of beds and in a great location. It's right at the top of the Gothic Quarter and 2 minute walk from the Metro. 5 minutes from Cortes Ingles for a great grocery store. 10 Minute walk from Placa Catalunya where the Aerobus drops off/picks up for airport transfer. The building is nice and clean, the apartment is nice and clean. It is quite large for a European flat. Quite impressive. The view from the living room is of a courtyard but gets great light. We don't actually spend much time hanging out in the apt so the view didn't bother us. The courtyard is kind of interesting to look at (other apartments and patios, etc). A few complaints: The apartment uses a virtual key. They said we "were required" to have internet to get in everyday. Thus, we had to pay for the internet everyday of our stay. There are 3 showers and bathrooms which is tremendous. However, 1 was so stinky we avoided it altogether. The other 2 showerheads had broken wall hangers and were difficult to use. They both leaked badly onto the floor. We notified the Manager and they quickly sent someone to look at them and said they were going to fix them. They were very responsive. Another small complaint, the wood floor boards were poorly installed and would slide around causing you to catch yourself a bit. May not bother everyone. We had noisy neighbors above us but that will be by chance. Overall a great place but I would check on some of the issues before booking.

Great neighborhood and value

First, the biggest benefit was the property manager. Really easy communication and flexibility, which was great. Neighborhood is great and really close to everything, 1-5 minute walk to L and major bus routes, lots of great restaurants and cafes. The unit is a good size and layout, great value for the amount of rooms/bathrooms.
