Fab little apartment in a great area
Loved our stay in this cute, clean apartment. Our host was out of town when we arrived but had arranged for us to be greeted by someone else which was perfect. We found the location was just terrific…easy walks for our nice coffees in the am, easy access via Ave Parallel to La Rambla and some activities we had lined up, pretty terraces for prosecco in the early eve, and nice bistros in the Parlement area. We also walked all the way to the Sagrada from the apartment too which is entirely possible for those who enjoy a good walk..

Wunderbar gelegene Ferienwohnung / Schlafzimmer ist Durchgangszimmer
Die Ferienwohnung liegt ideal, um Barcelona zu erkunden. U-Bahn und Bus sind max. 5 min entfernt und das Gelände der Weltaustellung von 1929 ist zu Fuß in 10 min erreichbar. Die Wohnung ist sehr gut ausgestattet und war sauber.Leider ist auf der Beschreibung der Wohnung / auf den Bildern nicht erkennbar, dass die Toilette und das Bad nur über das Schlafzimmer (Doppelbett) zugänglich sind. Damit wird das Schlafzimmer zum Durchgangszimmer. Bei der Reise als Paar ist das sicher kein Problem, aber wir reisten zu Dritt mit meiner Mutter und da war es nicht so ideal.Die Ablagemöglichkeiten für Sachen sind in beiden Schlafzimmern sehr begrenzt.

Quiet neighbourhood within 30 mins walk of most tourist destinations
Very functional and convenient. Walking through main bedroom to get to shower and toilet a bit disappointing if a friend is using the small 2nd bedroom. The 2-3 storey walk up should be noted - but overall a pleasant place and cost-effective.

Excellent location!
The property is well maintained and was clean when we got there. The best thing about it is its location. It is a short walk to the metro station (5 mins) and there is lots of eating establishments right nearby. Across the street are several small grocery stores and a slightly larger one in the nearby square. The apartment had plenty of room for our group of four and it’s nice that the bathroom was separate from the shower as it allowed us to multitask. The only thing to be aware of is that it is two flights up and there are no elevators. We love the view and would recommend this property to others. Additionally shout out to Frederick as he was able to help us with the request on short notice.

Recommandé pour quelques jours de découverte de Barcelone
Très bien situé dans l'agréable quartier populaire de Poble Sec, très bon accueil de notre hôte Fredéric, l' appartement a beaucoup de charme. Il vaut mieux privilégier les repas à l'extérieur (restaurants recommandés par Frederic) certains des précédents locataires ne veillant pas forcément à l'entretien des petits équipements usuels de cuisine (cafetières, grille pain, plat de four) . Nous avons passé un très bon séjour.

Great place
Fantastic and authentic apartment with a great location, close to shopping, public transport, and plenty of restaurants and bars. The apartment is well-equipped and has a lovely little balcony. Frederic greeted us on time and gave us great tips for our stay. If you’re into football, it’s close to FC Barcelona’s temporary home stadium, and only a 45-minute walk to Camp Nou. We’d love to come back!

Super expérience
Parfait séjour de 3 nuitées avec un super accueil de Frédéric que je remercie chaleureusement. J'ai pu repasser dans l'appartement en milieu de journée pour récupérer mes bagages avant d'aller à la gare. C'est franchement agréable se faire accueillir en personne et d'avoir des conseils personnalisés pour le séjour. Si l'occasion se représente pour moi de revenir à Barcelone, je reviendrai sûrement dans ce gite situé par ailleurs dans un quartier très agréable à 30 mn à pied de la gare. Petite épicerie bio coopérative dans la rue.

We really appreciated Fanny who was so understanding about out delayed flight and late check in. She gave us some good eating recommendations for the locale. The apartment was really generous in size and a relaxed, if slightly dated place. Great location and quiet area.

Ordinaire
Beaucoup plus clair et propre sur l'annonce de Vrbo que dans la réalité. Pas de rangement. On ne s'attendait pas à devoir monter 34 marches pour accéder au logement, ce qui chez nous équivaut à 3 étages. On a du aller s'acheter du papier de toilette, assouplisseur de tissus....pas trouvé de linge a vaisselle et trop rationné concernant les serviette de bain.

Appartement spacieux très bien situé
Nous avons joué de malchance car des travaux ont eu lieu pendant notre séjour : peinture sur les volets qui nous a empéché de profiter de la terrasse et travaux bruyants le matin dans un appartement voisin. En dehors de cela, l'appartement est très bien situé, tout près de la station de métro Poble Sec et tout près de Montjuic. Le propriétaire était sincèrement désolé des désagréments causés par les travaux. Il est par ailleurs très sympathique, très accomodant et son accueil était top. Nous relouerons ce bien lors de notre prochaine visite à Barcelone !
