great location, spacious apartment, noisy street work
Location was great. Apartment was spacious and well equipped. One drawback was the extensive outside street work that was very loud and noisy (6 days a week) for our 2 month stay, and it had a long way to go to being complete. Jack hammering, cutting granite blocks, forklifts, dumpsters being filled, etc. It will be beautiful when it's done. Other things to note: The walk up to second floor was fine, but there was a lot of foot traffic up and down the stairs at all hours of the night that was easily heard from the main bedroom. A takeout restaurant below was open until 2 am every night with a lot of patrons waiting outside for their food and talking and hanging out. The windows in the apartment were quite soundproof but that meant you had to keep them closed all the time to benefit from that. When we needed it, the air conditioning worked extremely well and was a welcome relief to the heat during our last few weeks in June. The apartment itself was really nice and spacious except for the things mentioned by others - no door on main bedroom and the two bathrooms open to each other over the top of the wall. We had a number of friends and family rotate staying with us, and we made it work because we were all very close and got along well. The host was very prompt in responding to any issue and the hookups for music and TV were welcome. Overall, we had a great time. It would have been nice to be aware of, and prepared for, the noise factors before we arrived.

Beautiful But Light Starved; No Privacy
This property was not a good fit for us. First and foremost, it was incredibly dark--even with all the lights on. There was no view of anything green from the windows, no trees and only a thin sliver of sky. Then there was the lack of privacy. The master bedroom had two entries but no doors, just a thin curtain on a rod. The two bathrooms, located back to back, were separated only by a half wall. When inside, you could hear everything happening in the other one (the back bathroom also had no mirror, just a tiny magnified one for shaving). We had wanted to have friends stay for the weekend but the lack of privacy prohibited this. In the kitchen, the knives were so dysfunctional as to be dangerous. When we were there, in September of 2022, the road outside our window was completely torn out and being worked on each day. We were not told this prior to our arrival, despite having booked two months in advance. Finally, the walk up to the apartment was grim, peeling paint and broken-down stairs.

Happiness in Barcelona!
My 5 weeks in Barcelona were a delight thanks to Tania and her beautiful apartment! The pictures are a true depiction of the property. It is a perfect mix of beautiful Spanish architecture and modern amenities. The kitchen is a dream with anything you could possibly need. It is not like most rentals with the bare minimum in appliances, glasses, dinnerware, etc. It has EVERYTHING! The coffee maker broke while I was there and Tania had one delivered the next day. The location is perfect within walking distance to everything. You can be to any sights, restaurants, shopping within a few minutes walking. The beaches are a 20 minute walk. Tania was there to greet me and explain how everything in the apartment worked and always answered my texts within a few minutes. She also had wonderful recommendations on restaurants and things to do. I highly recommend this place on your visit to Barcelona! Deb

Absolutely incredible stay!
My family and I spent a wonderful week in Barcelona and we couldn't have been happier with our stay at this gorgeous, well-situated apartment. It is comfortable, roomy and surprisingly quiet, considering its outstanding location right in the downtown area. You are minutes walk to La Rambla, the big department store, "El Corte Ingles" and the quaint little alleyways of the historic shopping area. Judit met us when we arrived and provided a great deal of information about things to do and see. The apartment is outstanding and provides a warm and well-appointed home base for a a stay in this incredible city. Would come again in a heartbeat!

Great Location, Great Apartment
The apartment is well appointed with kitchen pot/pans, coffee maker, blender, etc. It also has a washer and dryer which work perfectly. Arrangements with Judit were easy; and when we checked into the apartment David was very helpful about the apartment and where everything was and how the air conditioning worked. He also had a wealth of information for us - where the closeset grocery store was, what sights not to miss, etc. (Judit was out of town). The apartment itself is in a great location. We walked to everything. We loved being in the El Borne neighborhood, very close to many great restaurants, the Rambla and the Barri Gothic area. The beds are comfortable (we didn't use the 2nd bedroom) and having 2 bathrooms saved us time getting ready (the wall between the two bathrooms does not extend all the way up to the ceiling, but it wasn't an issue for us). This is a great apartment with plenty of room. I would recommend to stay here.
