We stayed at this location for over three weeks for work, and the place is in an excellent location—within walking distance to everything. There are three metro lines just a 5-7 minute walk away. The apartment has everything you need for a pleasant stay, but… if you're a light sleeper, you might want to consider staying somewhere else. I found it interesting that the advertisement describes it as a "quiet place," because it is far from quiet. From the main bedroom, you can hear everything happening in the apartment next door. Almost every other day, there were parties or loud conversations until 11:00 pm or later. One night, around 3:00 am, we heard screaming— a female voice shouting and a man yelling at her. It was scary, to say the least. When we expressed our concern, they said there was nothing they could do because the apartment was under a one-year lease. As a result, we had to sleep in the living room area just to get some rest. Other than this issue, the place is great. Maybe you'll be lucky and the noisy neighbors will be gone by the time you stay there.

The house is big and clean with a cute rooftop. Host is super helpful. Location is walkable to many main attractions. Everything is perfect except the bedroom is quite noisy that you can even hear people talking next door.

Bright, super-clean and comfortable
The historic apartment building enjoys a fabulous location within easy walking distance to many attractions, close to all public transport and the Hop On, Hop Off bus. Lots of supermarkets, shops, bars, coffee shops, restaurants, a covered food market are in the immediate or close vicinity. Fabulous architecture all around. Check-in was easy but some initial confusion was caused due to the absence of door keys (wrong information received from hosts). The apartment was exceptionally clean, is bright and airy, quickly heated. Mattress of double bed nice and firm, that of the single bed incredibly soft. Pillows were great; towels were good. Kitchen and shower room were adequate for the two of us. There’s a large roof terrace with tables and chairs.Photos in the listing should be updated; there were no carpets or rugs, no bed scarves. We couldn’t see the advertised DVD player nor DVDs. Not that it mattered to us but it’s inaccurate. The apartment was comfortable but tired looking (marked walls etc). It looks much fresher in the photos. This would not stop us from staying here again though. However: Having enjoyed the brilliantly quiet aspect of the apartment all week, our last night turned into a nightmare when the private occupiers of the adjacent flat partied from 2.30h at night to 6.00h in the morning. Party walls must be thin as cardboard. Not our apartment’s manager’s fault, but to bear in mind. Had this been going on all week, we would’ve had to move out.

Great location ,easy check in instructions. The place would benefit from some better towels( they were more like floor mats) ,better blankets and better wifi( you had to find the right spot in the apartment to connect) . Love the roof top deck ,360 view of Barcelona . Lauren was also very accommodating to us .

It was a good stay..Lillian gave very good instructions on how to store our luggage which was a big deal for us. Location was the best.

Three days in Barcelona
The apartment and its location was perfect for our short stay in Barcelona. It’s close to the Sagrada Familia, and other fantastic areas are easily accessible by walking. We didn’t take any public transportation, but it was nearby. The apartment was lovely, clean, and there is a terrace on the roof to enjoy the amazing views. Check in process was easy, and we were able leave our bags while we waited for the apartment as our flight arrived early. Overall, a great apartment for our family of 4, and we would definitely stay here again.

Nice central location
We really enjoyed our time in Barcelona, The flat was spacious, the bed comfortable and we liked the central location and the ease of getting around the city. Very frugal from an amenities standpoint. Would have been nice to have shower gel, soap, bottled water, maybe- the personal touch. We never saw the owner or manager. As to the property itself, could use a good updating. BUT the WiFi is terrible. Do not expect to stay logged on for any length of time. Really frustrating; from routine google searches to email, to Facebook. It’s slow and unreliable.

Comfortable tourist apartment
Very comfortable apartment, although tired & needing an upgrade, it was is mostly as represented. The bedrooms were clean & comfortable, perfect for a family with 2 kids. Although the kitchen was dark & gloomy, it was generally clean & well-stocked. The roof-top terrace was a disappointment - grimy and not a very pleasant place to hang out. The internet didn't work for our entire 4 day stay, and the manager was unable to correct it. The air con functioned fine. Certainly a good location for a brief stay in Barcelona as it is an easy walk to most sights, however, if staying longer in the city then I would look for a quieter location. Somewhat overpriced.

Much more outdated than shown. Only wifi in stairwell. Never had any contact with owners!
We have traveled to Europe many times and are accustomed to the lifestyle and furnishings. Unfortunately, the owners never replied to our texts. The linens were in poor shape. The first time we used a bath towel it fell apart! It was in a great area and fit most of our needs. The only critizism is that the communications were non-existant. Don't count on the wifi either!

Nice apartment but needs updating
This apartment was in a great location, with cafés, bus stops and the tube stop nearby. The facilities were all as described and it was very clean, however the apartment is looking very tired. It is in need of a facelift, new linen and towels and updated kitchen too. The air con, unfortunately, was not particularly efficient and is the first thing we would have changed. Upon arrival, the cot and high chair we had arranged were not at the apartment so we had to wait a couple of hours before they arrived and we could put our baby to sleep. The map we were promised detailing the local area also failed to arrive. Some kind of welcome pack would have been ideal. It's also worth noting that although the apartment does have a lift, it is up 8 steps which is a little awkward if you have a pushchair and suitcases.

A little bit tatty in a great location
This is an interesting one. The location is very good for most of the sights and we walked everywhere. There were 4 of us and it was good value for all of us and we spent most of our time outside the flat. I had read all the reviews and was assured that all the past issues had been rectified. However, the flat is still tatty and is in need of a real update. Then, it would be marvellous. The furniture is low budget, the bedsheets tired, the towels are still old and grey and there were little ants in the bathroom. The inside of the washing machine was very dusty and we chose not to use it. I did not find the kitchen inviting to use. But it did serve the purpose and we had a lift to take us to the top floor so it had its plusses. If I were the owner I would invest in this apartment and give it a most necessary uplift.

Great apartment in ideal location
My husband, son, and I stayed here for 5 days and it was perfect. Apartment is exactly as in photos. We arrived and it was clean, sunny and comfortable. It faces pretty courtyard and is quiet. Best part is a rooftop deck with chairs and tables. We ate breakfast up there every day. Beautiful view and only a short flight up front this top floor apartment. Shower is good and kitchen is cute and workable. The location is excellent. Building is in nice neighborhood with lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Main attractions are in walking distance and metro is 4 blocks away. The building and apartment are all accessed by code key entry and that makes it very easy. We recommend this and would definitely stay there again.

Lovely apartment in fab location - great value for money
Top floor apartment in the great Eixample district of Barcelona. Location was perfect - safe and lots of locals round and about. Kitchen and bathroom were small but adequate. The bedrooms were a double and twin which was perfect for our family: travelling with two sons aged 11 and 9. The living room was a good space too but we couldn't find any English channels on the TV! The building itself was very quiet and this apartment is at the back, so we didn't get any road noise. The roof top terrace was a real bonus - a great suntrap, quiet with great views of the streets below. Check in was easy with the greeter arriving within 5 mins of us calling him and we were able to check in early.

Not nearly as good as the pictures. Misleading !
Let me start off by saying that this was our first VRBO experience outside of the US. We've had wonderful stays in places such as upstate Michigan and NYC within the past couple years utilizing your service. I'll start with the positives; Great location, nearly all of targeted visit sites were within walking distance. We felt very safe staying in this neighborhood, lots of foot traffic in the streets well after midnight. The Internet service was solid. The apartment was turned over to us on time and it was in clean condition. The apartment was in poor condition and in desperate need of basic maintenance i.e., walls throughout the apartment were scuffed up with marks in dire need of painting. The few linens ( towels) were provided were at least ten years old and had turned gray from its original white shade. The blankets for the beds were also very old and faded. We only got about 3 days worth of toilet paper for the two of us. Washing and drying clothes was a day long process that required constant supervision as the french made equipment was very inefficient. Drying a medium size load took 5 hours utilizing the highest temperature setting. We feel we overpaid for this property and that the images we were allowed to view painted a misleading picture of the quality of the apartment. Case in point; took a three day trip to Madrid, stayed at a Marriott property four blocks away from the Atocha train station in the heart of town paying only $80 euros per night.

Nice apartment, great location
The apartment was in a nice neighborhood, very convenient to many sights. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The apartment was well equipped, and we especially appreciated having a washer drier. It was nice to have a separate sitting area, kitchen and 2 bedrooms. All of the rooms were spotlessly clean. The owner responded immediately to every question I had by email and gave thorough answers. He was accommodating and friendly.

Not very clean appartment
The location was good, but the apartment was not well taken care of. There were ants in the bathroom which made it undesirable! We had no hot water the first day, and then the hot water temperature was going on and off. The coffee pot was cracked, and we cut our hand washing it, the fridge door never closed shut properly. All these little issues make for a worrisome vacation. I would not stay here again.
