Guest Reviews
- Michelle (8/5): -
- Michele (6/5): Super cool artsy apartment - LOVED the apartment, decor, design, and art. There are cafes and groceries only steps away. The location in general was fantastic, but the street was really dark and dirty. The street is dark, and when we arrived there were a lot of young men loitering in doorways. Area is fun when shops and cafes are open, but it’s desolate when everything is closed. It also reeks of sewage. Reception never seemed to be open, but the emergency number really did come in handy and he responded immediately, not much concern for our issues, but did offer some alternatives (WiFi didn’t work, elevator didn’t work). The WiFi sucked which was a major inconvenience since I was needing to work and my daughter had school classes on her laptop. It dropped us over and over and over regardless of which option you connected to which was so frustrating. The sink in the bathroom is so tiny with a shelf right over it making it really hard to use for anything other than washing your hands. The light outside the room with 2 beds seemed to be motion activated so it popped on all night. The shade was pretty worthless at keeping the light out. And then the constant laundry done early every morning next door was so loud in that room with the two twin beds. The elevator is crazy tiny, but works, unless someone else in the building leaves the door open. We had luggage that our group could not handle
Moving down four flights so instead we had to go to each of the 8 floors to find who didn’t close it properly. Frustrating to say the least.
- Anja (8/5): Es war ein sehr schöner Urlaub mit ganz kleinen Abstrichen. - Wohnung zentral und schöne Dachterrasse Die Ausstattung der Küche mit Kochutensilien war etwas spärlich. Leider gab es die letzten beiden Tage nur kaltes Wasser zum Duschen.
- Guest (7/5): -
- Zamperini (8/5): -
- Marek (8/5): - Bardzo dobra, pomocna i miła obsługa. Mogliśmy zameldować się dużo przed czasem. Dobrze wyposażony aneks kuchenny. Słabo wyciszone drzwi wejściowe do apartamentu, ale z drugiej strony za ciszę odpowiadają także goście.
- Serhii (7/5): -
- stefania (10/5): -
- Catherine (7/5): Good - Noisy occupants, I contacted the WhatsApp number and raised this issue, the message was seen but host did not respond.
- Francis (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anonymous (10/5): Would definitely stay here again. - Reception staff really helpful by email and in person. Perfectly positioned apartment for us and only 5 mins to nearest metro. Clean and beautifully presented. Lots of places to eat and drink nearby and a mini supermarket next door. Some noise from outside late one night but maybe to be expected given it was a weekend. Not from inside the building.
- Matthew (8/5): Very good -
- Kristof (4/5): Disappointing - the key was a code, that could be used by the family. No hassling with keys or cards. there were 2 bottles of water in the fridge. The location was great - near to nice places to eat or have a drink, metro station was also close by. The reception had limited opening hours. There was a very unpleasant smell in the apartment throughout our stay, a lot of noise from the other apartments, no renewal of the towels (we were there for 6 days), no automatic check of the toilet paper, we had to ask it each time.
- Morrison (10/5): We had a wonderful trip. The customer service was fantastic. The unit was beautiful. I love the little Juliette balcony. - The apartment was beautifully furnished, and it was really conveniently walkable to restaurants and our conference centre.
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, tapas street right behind the corner. Noise from other rooms(appartments), but that is something you can live with.
- Kerim (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paul (8/5): Pleasant, enjoyable would not recommend Barcelona in summer.would not recommend this apartment poor beds too noisy - Compact. Had all we need. Aircons in each room. Beautiful building. Close to amenities. Main bed mattress very poor quality, too soft and no support. I had to sleep on couch. Single beds were camp sized, small. Can hear everything above you. Like a drum. We were unlucky to have noisy people above us who were up to 4am. Our host wasn’t very helpful at all. We never were asked once how we were. We weren’t given toilet rolls regularly or clean towels. Only upon request. Not very hospitable. On gets feel Barcelona is tourist-tired!
- Katherine (9/5): Superb -
- Jill (8/5): Much better choice than hotel. Would happily return - 11 tourist apartments decorated with fabulous artwork. Shared Rooftop terrace and room balcony. Has everything you could need. Soft beds.
- Neil (8/5): The apartment helped make a great stay in Barcelona. - Really nice apartment, and close to the metro No cleaning products provided
- Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
- Jonathan (9/5): Good size aparentment at a reasonable price. - This was perfect for our family of 4. Plenty of space with 2 rooms and a reasonable kitchen and living area. All TVs were able to be used with streaming services. Fridge didn't seem to get very cold. Really that is a minor thing
- Salma (9/5): Very good option for a family and couple - Very nicely decorated flat close to everything. Neighborhood with many restaurants, groceries shops and coffee shops. The apartment is well equipped including the kitchen. Washing machine and dryer available at the 7th floor. We took the one with big terrace which was really nice to have breakfast outside. Bed were comfortable. Picture on booking are accurate The only thing missing is daily cleaning as it was charged to the room.
- Ana (9/5): Superb -
- Charles (9/5): Great little appartments close to everything. - Nice modern apartment with rustic charm. Enjoyed the whimsical art throughout. Nice rooftop patio. Bathroom had a little bit of a sewage smell, nothing opening the window couldn’t resolve.
- Brandi (10/5): Perfect location to enjoy the true Barcelona - Comfortable beds, beautiful accommodations and a great place for our group. Nothing to complain about. It was a great stay and I would happily stay on my next visit!
- Krista (9/5): Superb -
- Christian (8/5): Very good -
- Saba (10/5): Great - Beautiful elegant Coffee pot did not work
- Nosheen (9/5): We had a very pleasant stay - Very quirky property in a great location. We appreciated access to the supermarket, shops and cafes on our doorstep. The beds in the twin room were uncomfortable for our children. The bigger bedroom however had a very comfortable bed. It would also be a good idea to have an oven in the kitchen.
- Yu-fan (7/5): Good - Only 5 minutes walk to the transportation. Use a passcode to enter the apartment is convenient. The shower is good.
The air conditioner didn’t work. There is smoke smell in our apartment. We stayed for a week and the smoke smell last and didn’t not go away.
- Kendrick (8/5): Very good -
- Yoana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tanja (9/5): Location is good and very clean apartment. -
- Renee (9/5): Wonderful flat - Very clean, nicely decorated, convenient location to many sites and restaurants. Responsive management. Looks exactly like pictures. Very easy check in. Allowed us to leave bags at reception after check out, our flights were later in the day. Wifi did not work at first, but management was very responsive to fix it.
- Elina (7/5): Ok apartment, but could be cleaned better - Kitchen was equipped okay and other furniture were practical. Nice interior design. Liked the art. Salt, oil, tea and instant coffee available for the first night. Check-in with a lock code was handy in the evening. Bath soap, hand soap and dishwashing soap provided. Cold, couldn’t figure out how to warm it with A/C. Floors were dirty, especially bathroom and this dirt followed with feet to the bed. Lots of little ants attacking anything that they could eat. We got apartment which was underground so the daylight was scarce and didn’t invite to use the balcony. Shower head holder was broken and kept dropping. Very thin walls so you might want to pack earplugs.
- Abilash (9/5): Great experience overall.. - Interiors were very unique and clean. Well furnished ..excellent location. Friendly staff Toilet is a bit small and inconvenient
- Eleanor (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ana (10/5): Exceptional - Beautyfull design, great beds and pillows, good location, helpfull stuff.
- Craig (9/5): Superb -
- Jatin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Magdalena (8/5): Lovely apartment - Beautiful apartment, very stylish and cosy.Great central location. We really appreciated the beautiful artwork throughout the apartment and the building The bathroom is a big let down and is so basic & small that it doesn't feel like it belongs to the same apartment.
Very noisy neighbours in the other rented apartment, seems like big party groups are allowed or poorly controlled.
- Stephen (8/5): Very good -
- Hayley (9/5): Superb - Clean, well equipped, great location
- Simon (8/5): Perfect apartment with great facilities. Loved it!! - Great apartment and facilities. Property was spot on. The online check in website was like using something from 1997
- Tina (8/5): Very good - Beautiful apt!! Very charming!! We really enjoyed it!! It was very loud outside on a Friday night until after midnight, but that was the only night several nights while we were there including that Saturday night. There was not much storage but it worked ok.
.
- Simone (8/5): Very good -
- Sarah (10/5): Wonderful apartment in a fantastic area - Modern apartment in a building with lots of character. Very comfortable beds and plenty of pillows. Good kitchen facilities inc washing up liquid and tea towel. Bathroom included shampoo etc. 5 mins away from 2 different metro stations with different lines so it was easy to access the city. Lots of restaurants, bars, supermarkets and bakeries on the door step. Ample space for family of 4 inc 2 teenagers. Area felt safe and apartment felt secure. Photos on the website are accurate and true. Nothing I could fault
- Praveen (9/5): Property was beautiful and nicely located - Good cosy rooms and kitchen Vanessa the staff member was very rude and I had a lot of trouble checking in with my tired son waiting
- Alyx (9/5): Superb -
- Scott (7/5): Good -
- Kerry (10/5): Really nice time, clean and tidy. Beautiful apartment- easy to get to the Metro - Really nice style- loved the ceilings and facilities Nothing
- Josephine (8/5): Just off Parallel, close to Montjuic. - Wonderful reception staff.
A very secure entrance.
Close to transport.
Comfortable beds.
Close to a piazza Couldn't be helped - a strong garlic & onion cooking smell from neighbours.
- Aniko (10/5): perfect location, perfect condo. - The pillow for me was excellent!
- Daria (7/5): It’s a nice option if you use only master bedroom - The location is excellent and the interior design is cute In the small room that was impossible to sleep normally because each time some of the neighbours used a bathroom/toilet there was sooo much noise, it felt like you’re in a plane that’s taking off. It’s because there are boilers right behind the wall. Plus audibility through the window is very high.
- Alexandru (10/5): Exceptional - The design was really awesome
- Theresa (10/5): Great 2 bedroom. Great location. - Excellent location. Close to metro. Walkable to rambles and Gothic area( 20 to 25 mins) and other. Lots of restaurants , market and bakeries very close. 2 bedroom was large nice kitchen and balcony. Loved everything.
- Maedeh (5/5): Except being nosiy other facilities were good - The location and the host were very good. The consept of the building was good too The balcony door was broken so it was very noisy.
- Shaun (4/5): Apartment good but noise factor and subsequent lack of sleep ruined this experience. - Over all Apartment looked like photos on line and had lots of character.
Good Central Location and on the most part clean with the basic kitchen utensils required for basic self-catering. City Tax email/message from host via booking.com message which was not received until we were at the apartment door with a tired toddler. Informed we could not get in until online forms were completed and a further payment made, very frustrating and stressful trying to complete. Would have preferred an email direct as was not fully aware of message system on booking.com.
No welcome pack with area recommendations etc (would have been useful as no full time reception)
No guide on how to use oven/microwave (subsequently looked completely unused!)
Main Shower Rain head did not work
NOISE - we booked this apartment based on other recommendations regarding it being a central but quiet apartment off the Main Street. Our apartment was high up street facing and was far from quiet. Not only was it very clear to hear the Main Street noise but there was constant noise through out the night from passing pedestrians out side talking at full volume and shouting. Small groups also hanging around the shop opposite smoking and talking until late. our toddlers room at the back was little better. Also noise from above apartment.
I would not recommend for a family with young children if you are likely to be in during the evenings!
- Catherine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emily (10/5): Central stay - Centrally located and very comfortable.
Reception was very welcoming and helpful.
Minutes walk to Carrer de Blai and bus/metro. Knew from the pictures but balcony is very small - enough room to bring out a chair only.
- Maria (8/5): Very good -
- Wayne (8/5): I would stay there again. - The location was awesome. On a quiet street with a vibrant street scene in the evenings. I found it stressful waiting for the code to be sent to me. That proved to be a moot point as I arrived when the front desk was staffed. 10:00 till 15:00
- Karen (8/5): A perfect weekend in Barcelona visiting family ❤️ - Perfect for our needs , very quiet and good location. A 20 minute walk to Port Vell. A small convenience store right next door and laundromat just opposite, across the street. A larger supermarket just around the corner on Parrallel Street . Clean and comfortable with good aircon, iron/ ironing board , fully equipped kitchen, very small lift to second floor, excellent shower and comfortable beds. In a perfect world, having two bathrooms would have been easier but it wasn’t really a drama!
- Louise (8/5): Very good - The check-in process is a bit long a and heavy plus not completely user friendly.
- Marcelo (10/5): Exceptional - Easy access from airport, 3 min walks from underground station. Close to all Barcelona amenities.
- Matt (9/5): Superb -
- Indeevari (8/5): Very good -
- Sarah (7/5): clean and comfortable , excellent host - Privacy - directly overlooked / looked at by surrounding apartments so couldn’t have curtains open and made use of the terrace unappealing.
- Juan (9/5): Superb -
- Susan (10/5): Exceptional - Staff who helped us. Food street nearby and quiet.
- Karen (9/5): Vibrant city, lively, fabulous history, wonderful food and great accommodation - Fabulous apartment, comfortable size for 3 people, comfy sofa. Location was great and we found our way round with the help of our host on reception, her knowledge was excellent and she told us where and how to get the metro and the hop on hop off bus. We used the bus for 2 days and that helped us to go to the site we wanted to see which was perfect. Used metro to get to Las Ramblers this is great for eating and as 3 females we felt safe the whole time we were there. It’s such a vibrant city and would definitely recommend AG apartments great stay, thank you. Nothing
- Sava (10/5): Exceptional -
- Teri (8/5): It was ok but not great. - Good location No dishwasher and you can ear the neighbors above you.
- Kayleigh (10/5): Great location, friendly staff, lovely apartment. -
- Uģis (9/5): Superb -
- Maree (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anna (8/5): Great home base for six night Barcelona visit. - El Poblo Sec was a convenient and dynamic neighbourhood. Lots of little restaurants, supermarcados, shows and felt very safe. Steps away was the Metro and Bus. Only a few stops to all attractions. Hike Montjuic from the apartment! Well equipped kitchen and GOOD SHOWER! Walk up stairs or elevator. Not enough hangars.
- Vesna (8/5): Very good -
- Maria (8/5): Very good - Great location, close to transport links, short walk to many places of interest. Good restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Only a small issue - overuse of chemical reed diffusers which we had to place outside on the terrace.
- Elisa (7/5): Beautiful city - Nice Tapa bars 5 minutes from the apartment. The keypad to enter the code and open the door requires you to enter it very quickly, which I did. However, when I called the center, they gave me the wrong apartment number and floor. Eventually, with the help of my teenagers, I realized that the information in my email was correct—the only issue was entering the code quickly.
Additionally, I was frustrated that after paying in advance, they wouldn't give me the entry code until I paid an additional amount, which was less than $80, supposedly for some tax. If this was indeed a tax, why wasn't it included when we initially paid the full price for our stay? And we had no hot water, I called the centre no help because he did not speak English. Eventually, someone in the building came and switched the water heater on.
- Vicki (9/5): We had a lovely stay. I bit difficult to get into initially , but everyone was very helpful. We were charged twice and - Location More blankets
- Ava (9/5): Superb -
- Isaac (9/5): Superb -
- Harrison (5/5): Nice spot, clean, but still waiting on security deposit, it’s been over two weeks - It was nicely located Security deposit still hasn’t been processed into my account
- Sharon (9/5): Lovely apartment in a great position with lots of bars and restaurants. - Lovely modern apartment - great air conditioning which was a must as it was so hot in July.
Reception guy was very friendly and we were able to access the apartment early.
You will receive the code to access the apartment on the day of arrival once you have paid the city tax, I was worrying as hadn't heard anything but once they contacted us they were very helpful. The only thing which let it down was that you could hear everything from the apartment upstairs. It woke us up on numerous occasions when they came in or checked out late. The cleaner came around 6.00a.m. to clean it one morning and we could hear everying!!
- Jih (2/5): Really bad experience - They charge us €250 as a security deposit in July 18th, but they haven’t refunded it in August 8th. We almost contact them 5 times but they still not willing to figure out this problem. This is awful and it’s really exhausted and also broke the trust between us.
If there are other travelers who read this review and don’t want to spend too much time chasing for security deposits, maybe you can think carefully about whether to choose this apartment.
- Joanna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Butler (10/5): Great place to call home when in Barcelona! - It was super clean and quiet! Perfect location next to the metro and bus stop as well as walking distance to a variety of restaurants. It was the perfect place for tourists! Nothing
- Laura (9/5): Superb -
- Ken (6/5): Pleasant - Good design and location, easy access with code. The hot water didn’t work. We let the landlord know and didn’t receive a response during our stay. Additionally the AC in the living room was dripping, so we couldn’t use it.
- David (10/5): Brilliant. - Clean, tidy, liked the art, great location, exactly as shown in the photos. Nothing we didn’t like.
Be aware of the hair drier, the out plastic is cut by the handle. No bare wires are showing yet but the coloured wires are visible.
- Jisela (7/5): Overall - it was a pleasant stay, - Bed was very uncomfortable with just a sheet and very thin blanket.
bathroom had a toilet brush on the side of the toilet that was full of disgusting liquid.
1/2 way through our visit - hosts entered apt for maintenance. After that our internet stopped working.
- Lisa (7/5): Good - Location. Found fun restaurants and bars The A/C unit didn't cool very well.
- Catherine (10/5): Cool and convenient! - Very cool interior and helpful staff Lift was very small but good otherwise
- Daniel (8/5): Very good -
- Jayne (8/5): Great apartment option for Barcelona - Fantastic little apartment in a great location, close to cafes and supermarkets as well as two metro stations. Loved the quirky design. Exceptionally clean, and good value for Barcelona. Good room configuration for a family, with twin beds in one room rather than the often found double. We were on first floor so apartment was very dark due to surrounding buildings. Only sheet and very light blanket on beds, could have done with additional duvet. Bathroom needs an extractor fan and lounge needs one extra comfy seat as couch only big enough for 3 maximum.
- Cindy (9/5): Superb -
- Aram (5/5): Passable - 1/Only the location is very good and near la rambla ,
2/availability of many shop and bus and metro stations around the appartment. 1/The elevator it’s enough only for one person and not safe at all,my kids were afraid to go inside
2/There was no daily cleaning 5 days without cleaning by the way i asked, they told me you book cleaning 🤷🏻♂️
3/ One for 10 hours water was stopped in the building
4/ the bedrooms is so small
5/ air conditioning not enough to cool the building.
6/ there was only one washing machine for all building and there was no diashwasher.
Totally i was disagreed 👎
- Ria (9/5): Busy - Location and apartment space NA
