Nice apartment in Barcelona
Apartaments are located perfectly in Poblenou, where you have hundreds of great shops and awesome restaurants. It is also 5min walk to the beach, which was very convenient too. An hour walk to Sagrada Familia (if you like walking :)) but you can also take a metro, which is about 10min walk. Location is a highlight and its the reason why we would definitely come back, despite some disadvantages. I think the apartment should have been cleaned a bit better and some equipment in the kitchen need a replacement (like frying pans). But the bed was spacious and comportable, and apartment would fit a family 2+2 (we were 2+1) and it was good.

The property is close to the beach and all its action. It is also very close to a street that comes alive at night with great food choices. It was a great location.

I really like this property, the apartment is very nice and open. Very well located, close to the beach and one of the ramblas. Far away from La Sagrada or park Guell. I would like to recommending to request very specific instructions on how to get inside of the place, took us forever to find the right front door.

We stayed 3 nights w 2 kids. Pool is a bit smaller but great. Overlooks beach.Indeed 5 min walk to Marbela beach. Beautiful beach, clean, busy, fun. To get to the centre: 10min walk to “Poblenou”metro station and then 10 min on the train and 5 min walk to LaRambla.overall 25-30 min to get to downtown. Close to building is Rambla de Poblenou street with lots of restaurants and small grocery stores. We had fun. Checking in was a bit complicated for us as we didn’t receive the instructions email but after check in they tried hard to make us feel welcome and taken care of.

This place was great, we were there for 2 weeks and the location is perfect for being close to important areas but still quiet at night. The apartment has everything we needed (we cooked food most nights) and the staff was very helpful even coming to let us in on their day off (Sunday). The place has clearly been well used with marks on the walls and floors in the lobby and room but everything was clean. When we come back to Barcelona we will try and stay here again!

Nice but lacking some basic equipment
It was good and the staff were helpful. It just lacked in some basic stuff. And we couldn’t Male he chromecast stream Netflix as it didn’t have the same interface. We made do though! Main things missing: The towels were pretty small and didn’t match. We didn’t have a tea towel or oven mitts so we had to use one of our hand towels. Two small toilet rolls and two dishwasher tablets are a bit stingy. The cooking pans are old and need changing and the safe doesn’t work or have clear instructions. The room was nice and spacious and the bed was comfy. It was clean enough but there some bits that weren’t “hotel” clean if that makes sense. Would recommend but those changes would make it spot on.

The apartment was spacious, clean and had great natural lighting during the day. The bed was big and comfortable. The apartment is in a great location with a wide variety of shops within a couple minutes walk, the beach was just across the road and the metro station and nightclubs were very close by too.

The apartment was modern and the room looked appealing. However there were a few things that needed attention. When we got there our shower didn’t work. We contacted the reception twice and after a whole day we had to go back into reception where the lady said they have been to fix it. We went back and still hadn’t been fixed. Some repair men came as soon as we came back in evening. The apartment had a nice sea view and had a lot of facilities within the room.

It was my 4 th time in Barcelona so will say that I feel like local :) . Barcelona is amazing city which doesn’t sleep. There are so much things to do and see so I strongly recommend. Our apartment was right what we need for comfortable stay. It is very well equipped inside and is next to beach . Location is very good as at the same time you can see how the local are leaving there also it is only 100 m from beach where you can take a walk to port Olympic or to city center .

check in is practically impossible -- requires European phone no bedding provided for sofa bed, because "reservation was for two people and that means a king bed" (I traveled with my son) no bathtub stopper provided "because uses too much water" communication unhelpful, office availability 10-7 on weekdays location very good, apartment comfortable, wifi strong some furniture (sofa bed) old, the rest very nice no regular cleaning, only for extra charge initial cleaning charged additionally, too probably just cultural differences at the start

Response from Reception office on Aug 1, 2018
Dear Vita, thank you for your comment. European phones do not exist... what you need for our Virtual Check-in Service is a common Smartphone. In case our guest prefer a personal check-in is not a problem. We will provide it. You choose the option of the virtual check-in and, in any case, you could access to the apartment very quickly because our check-in agent was waiting for you also if you had the virtual key activated. We are used to host international travellers. For us cultural differences are not a problem. We believe that the nice of our jobs (travelling and hosting) is discover and respect cultural differences. You have booked an apartment with a double bed and you haven't requested the use of the sofa-bed which is an extra bed (for the 3rd and 4th persons). How can we know that you need an extra bed? When you asked for it, we have promptly provided the additional bedding. Maybe it is not due to cultural differences but it is due to the fact that you are used to travel in hotels with "all inclusive and a reception 24h". Thank you for your time in helping us to increase our service level.

Needs a bit of improvement
Location is excellent, close to transport system, restaurants, grocery store and beach. Comfortable bed but pillows are not comfortable. Cleaning fee should be removed as the facility management is asking customers to clean the place before we check out. They provided only one roll of toilet paper for 6 days we stayed. Bath tub curtain needs to be replaced as it is so dirty.

Great short break
I would stay at this apartment complex again as the location is great for both relaxing on the beach and just a short walk from some bars and restaurants or the metro if you want to go into the main centre. The one thing I din't like is having to pay separately for cleaning charge as this is done on arrival, I would rather this be included in the price at the time of booking. However now I am aware of this it would not put me off staying here again.

Our stay
When we missed our flight and couldn't get another one until the next day, they were unable to refund us the cost of our night. However we still went to their office and they were super friendly and willing to hold all of our luggage for us so we could spend the day around town. Even gave us helpful recommendations and directions. Bummed we couldn't get our money back, but glad they still found a way to help us.

Great location!
Clean, secure , comfortable apartment with all amenities. 2 minute walk to beach. 5 minute walk to Metro. Easy to get to anywhere in Barcelona. Great restaurants, shopping and people right there in Poblenau district.! Only complaint was the need of a shower curtain to prevent flooding (just one half of tub covered with glass). Also washcloths would be a nice addition. Frederico & Lorenzo were knowledgeable & helpful. Wish there was someone there over the weekend in case of a problem. Would definitely stay there again!

Enjoying the buzz in Barcelona!
Spent a very nice few days in Barcelona. The apartment was very comfortable and located close to the metro and beach which were both a plus. Reported a light bulb gone in the bathroom and they never came to fix it which was disappointing, but otherwise had a very comfortable stay. The apartment is smaller than it looked in the photos and there are no balconies, which you would miss if staying for longer.

Dissappointed
We have recently returned from a 5 day stay at this apartment. We stayed in apartment 2.1 and was pretty disappointed as it didn't live up to the standard which we would have expected. Dirty bathroom sink, which we complained about and wasn't rectified. Dirty armchair cover. Dirty windows and curtains. Dirty marks on the walls. Dust & hairs under the bed. Coffee table was unsafe and crockery was chipped or cracked. I will say that the Management staff were very pleasant though.

We had a great time in Barcelona staying in this lovely apartment. Very clean, white and modern with a luxurious feel. Very close to the beach front, which has been all developed fairly recently. All mod cons. The only thing that was missing was mention of the pool. Maybe it's a seasonal thing, but we were given no directions or instructions about where or how to access it and the only place it could be found was in the name of this apartment!

Vi var to voksne og ett barn på seks år. Vi likte godt størrelsen på leiligheten (hadde en med to soverom og to bad, luksus!), og at det ikke var langt til verken stranda eller gågate med restauranter og butikker, men samtidig var det et rolig område. Lite støy fra andre beboere også. Kjempefint med basseng på taket, selv om det var lite. Det eneste som trekker ned, var at det ikke var noe sted å sette bagasje før vi fikk tilgang til leiligheten. Kontoret deres var stengt, selv om det stod på døra at det skulle være åpent. Også en til tider ganske sterk kloakklukt utenfor, som kom og gikk. Men - alt i alt - et kjempefint sted som absolutt anbefales.

Près d’une merveilleuse plage! Très difficile si Check inn est la fds ; tout est électronique et ça prend internet et faire débloquer les courriels a l’extérieur du pays … donc beaucoup de stress et difficultés à rentrer dans le logement . Le système pour entrée dans le bloc par internet , c’est pas l’idée du siècle on doit tout le temps traîner le téléphone et s’assurer qu’il soit chargé si on veut rentrer . Sinon il y a tout ce qu’il faut et climatisation fonctionne parfaitement . Améliorations recommandées : - systeme pour entrer dans l’hôtel - chaises à la piscine - serviettes à la piscine
