Guest Reviews
- Idaira (7/5): -
- Piras (8/5): -
- marina (3/5): Estancia en apartamento desagradable - Ubicación Limpieza
Ducha rota, faltaba un hoja de la manpara
Cucarachas
Ventanas a patio mínimo negras
Un precio desorbitado para lo que ofrecen
- Michal (1/5): - Lokalizacja Bardzo głośni sąsiedzi przez 2 noce...zero kontroli...
- Valerie (4/5): séjour pour un anniversaire - l'emplacement correspondait à ce que nous souhaitions il faut un smartphone pour ouvrir la porte et nous n'avions pas vraiment été informés de cela.
j'ai du payer la veille pour obtenir le code alors que dans la réservation il été noté "aucun prépaiement"
il manquait une porte à la douche, le sol de la salle de bain était mouillé à chaque douche
pas de torchon ni de serviette pour essuyer la vaisselle
les fenêtres donnent toutes sur les coursives et couloirs, on doit donc fermer les rideaux
beaucoup de bruit le 2e soir
- Gelásio (8/5): -
- marina (1/5): -
- Sebastiano (8/5): - Vicino alle Ramblas Un po rumorosa la zona
- Mónica (8/5): Todo muy bien!!! - Ubicación, comodidad de los ambientes y un muy buen trato de los responsables. Lo que sigue no es crítica sino sugerencias: Colocar más elementos de cocina. Aumentar la luz artificial. Dejar algunos de elementos de aseo, aunque sea para el primer día. Agregar algunos muebles o estantes para colocar maletas y objetos al momento de dormir (no hay algo que pueda usarse como mesa de luz)
- ALEXANDRU (8/5): -
- Livie (6/5): - Da das Schloss der Wohnung kaputt war, durften wir in eine andere Wohnung, das Personal war nett und hat sich direkt um eine Lösung gekümmert. Leider war unsere neue Unterkunft in einem ganz anderen Viertel etwas mehr ausserhalb
- THOMAS (9/5): -
- Vincenzo (10/5): -
- Adam (6/5): -
- Andrea (7/5): -
- Alessio (7/5): - Prodotti da bagno insufficienti
- Pedro (10/5): -
- Ventsislav (8/5): Decent. - More or less the accommodation was exactly what we were expecting. It's very convenient unlocking system through your smartphone. The beds were nice. The rooms and bathrooms were a bit tiny and the rooms from the side of the street were quite noisy due to a couple of clubs being located there.
- Malek (9/5): -
- angelo (8/5): -
- Maryline (6/5): Très bien placé mais l’appartement mériterait d’être un peu plus soigné. - Très bon emplacement Le manque d’ustensiles de la cuisine , une nappe pour la table en verre, des tables de chevet manquantes et surtout un meuble tv risqué. La tv risque de tomber à tout moment .
- stefano (7/5): -
- FRANK (10/5): -
- Amina (4/5): - Great location. Most historical and famous sights are within walking distance. There were no duvet covers. The sheets curled up, leaving the blanket touching the body, which was uncomfortable.
There wasn't a single hook in the bathroom to hang a towel on.
There were two tiny bars of soap for four people, so we couldn't even wash our hands the minute we arrived at the apartment.
- Jocelyn (7/5): - Idéalement placé. Équipements cuisine quasiment inexistant. Matelas franchement usés.
- dupont (7/5): Goede locatie, basic appartement, slechte matrassen - Ruimtelijk Comfort (matrassen). 1 matras stak er zelfs een springveer uit.
- Ewa (6/5): Dobre miejsce na wyjazd nastawiony głównie na zwiedzanie Barcelony. - Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, blisko wielu atrakcji turystycznych, stacji metra, restauracji, sklepów. W obiekcie czysto, pełne wyposażenie. Bardzo dobra komunikacja z obiektem, szybkie odpowiedzi na maile. Czysto także na klatce schodowej. Przygnębiający widok z okien - na podwórze i szyb windy. Jedna z sypialni - ta z widokiem na szyb windy - praktycznie bez dostępu do światła dziennego i świeżego powietrza. Łazience przydałby się remont.
- Narciso (8/5): Rapporto corretto qualità/prezzo - Quiete Niente da segnalare
- Ana (9/5): - Muito bem localizado. Muito agradável.
- Stephen Mark (10/5): A Faultless Stay In A Side Street In Barcelona. - The property was just off Las Ramblas in the El Raval area, but not too far in to worry about the reputation.
I visited for football, my team, Newcastle United, were playing Barcelona in the Champions League.
With 3000 tickets and 10,000 fans traveling I wasn't afforded the opportunity to do as much research as I could, this place was advertised elsewhere as well as their own website, so I jumped on this property when it became available.
Then shock horrors, I was able to head over to Google and do a little more research, unfortunately I had paid in full to lower the price, property prices were rising quicker than fuel during the Iran conflict, so there's no way I could afford another property so I had no choice but to go with this one.
Some of the reviews were horrendous
Bed bugs.
Rude staff
Place was unclean
Drug addicts outside the property.
Burglaries.
Front doors are not lockable and anyone can walk in.
Not given access codes to the building and struggling to get inside.
I was tempted to bring a bullet proof vest.
Then I arrived....
On arrival I arrived a little early so I got to the property around 3 hours earlier than check in.
I sent a quick message to the host and they literally replied within minutes, they altered the time sensitive key codes so we could check in early. So far so good.
Rude staff? Not so far.
We open the front door, it's controlled via an app they give you access to, you need to be quick it's one of those electromagnetic locks that lock if you don't open in time.
But after a couple of attempts it was easy to use.
Front door not lockable? Not sure about that! It won't budge if the electromagnetic lock doesn't engage.
It's a heavy wrought iron door.
You access the property via an app you download onto your phone, you swipe on your phone and it engages the lock. If you're not Infront of the door or not quick enough it locks
Secure? Absolutely. Although the place was enjoyable one of the bedrooms overlooked the lift and my guest did say they could hear it moving during the night and you could hear people walking up the stairs.
You could, at times, hear people moving furniture upstairs, but it's an old building, there isn't much you can do. It not a purpose built holiday rental, it's a domestic property converted into apartments.
Our apartment was at the back of the building, so overlooked the back of other buildings, laundry being hung from balconies, flags and the existence of life.
It wasn't a postcard picture but it was enjoyable to be part of.
I love seeing how other people live, seeing how different people from other countries live their lives is something you don't get the opportunity to do when you're on a short break.
So although the rear of the building may not have been picture perfect, it was an amazing opportunity to be given an insight at how other people live their lives.
It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it certainly didn't put me off.
When I was doing my online property hunting, I was specifically looking for one with a Terrace or a communal garden and this one fit the bill.
Having checked booking.com and Egoda there were images of a rooftop terrace so I was looking forward to using it.
But unfortunately access was restricted.
It was a little disappointing, as this was the focal point I was looking for.
But I can understand why this may have been restricted, having 10,000 drunken football fans roaming around the area, an unsupervised rooftop terrace may not have been the best idea.
So for health and safety purposes I can forgive them for this one.
- ANTO (10/5): Ottimo soggiorno e disponibilità ottima sia per il check-in e per il ceck-out - Posizione ottima !!! Tutto
- Jose Miguel (7/5): -
- Farkas (7/5): -
- Ildikó (10/5): Kényelmes szállás Barcelona központjában - Az apartman központi elhelyezkedése. Kényelmes szállás, 5 fő számára tökéletes volt.
- Frederik (7/5): Top Lage in der Innenstadt von BCN - Die Lage ist wirklich super! Besser geht es kaum, um Barcelona fußläufig zu erkunden. Leider floß das Wasser kaum ab, weder im Waschbecken im Bad, als auch in der Küche. Und es hat auch sehr nach Abfluss gerochen. Sonst aber eine klasse Wohnung!
- lauric (4/5): Appartement très sonore - Bien situé.
Assez propre, lit correct. L'appartement 03 donne devant une boîte de nuit.
Ça a été un enfer, un bruit horrible. Impossible de dormir.
Nous venions pour nous reposer et apprécier Barcelone.
Vraiment invivable
- Tamas (9/5): -
- Hristo Georgiev (8/5): -
- Jennifer (6/5): - Mi è piaciuta la posizione centrale vicino alla Rambla, arteria turistica di Barcellona Pessimi i materassi del letto matrimoniale e del divano letto. Materassi a molle vecchi e scomodissimo, ho dormito poco e male, con continui dolori di schiena. È semplicemente inaccettabile che un appartamento non fornisca di base un materasso comodo, simil ortopedico. Prima di partire avevo esplicitamente richiesto le condizioni del materasso, in quanto ho problemi di salute riguardanti la schiena.
- Laura (7/5): Tutto ok - Pulita ma mancano alcuni dettagli: un comodino per ogni letto, le luci da comodino. Qualche gancio per gli asciugamani, qualche mensola in bagno. La mancanza di una finestra nella camera piccola. La finestra c’era ma sul cavedio dell’ascensore
- luke (6/5): -
- Katerina (10/5): - Stupendo
- Regina Zélia (4/5): Não gostei. - Localização Barulho, canalização, paredes..
- Rachele (9/5): -
- Federica (9/5): Perfetto!! - La posizione, la grandezza dell’appartamento e la disponibilità Nulla
- Gianluca (7/5): Buono - Posizione Mancavano alcune cose essenziali per renderla ottima
- Sophie (8/5): - Appartement en plein centre ville, à porter de tout. Facile d'accès, près des transport en commun. Chauffe eau un peu petit pour une famille de 5 dont une ado et un bébé.

- Denise (6/5): -
- Mohamed Baha Eddine (10/5): Forttt - Très propre
- Carla (8/5): - Location was great The mattress on the beds where very uncomfortable
- Hiten (10/5): -
- d3ka (10/5): - La gestione dell'apertura porte via app Scale troppo ripide abbastanza pericolose
- Martina (9/5): - Otevírání fungovalo perfektně, v ubytování bylo vše co jsme potřebovaly Některým se špatně spalo z důvodu hlučné ulice
- Morgan (10/5): -
- giuseppe (9/5): -
- Nicola (6/5): - La caldaia produceva poca acqua calda: in 5 dentro l'appartamento, non siamo riusciti a fare la doccia calda dopo i primi due utilizzi, nella stessa giornata
- Karine (5/5): - L’emplacement proche de la Rambla et de la place del Reis. Dans la rue se trouve un établissement nocturne et on entend des boums des boums et les passants en pleine nuit.
- Watcharaphon (5/5): -
- Dany (8/5): - L’espace dans l’appartement (nous étions seulement 2 amies)
La situation : Metro Drassanes au bout de la rue
L’Avenue de a Rambla toute proche : restos, commerces CHambre sur rue : balayeuse
L’incivilité des occupants de l’immeuble probablement des touristes
La porte-fenetre fermée par une petite targette, ce qui laisse passer le bruit
La porte de douche (seulement une porte sur deux), le rideau de douche en remplacement trop court
- Magdalena (8/5): Super spędzony czas z najbliższymi. Apartament w centrum przy La Rambla, cicha okolica, wyspaliśmy się bardzo :) Super w - Miła obsługa, czysto, świetna lokalizacja Pokoje do odświeżenia
- Leka (10/5): -
- Corbo (5/5): -
- Damjan (5/5): -
- Fabiano Cibien (9/5): - Vicino alla Rambla, zona comodissima e tranquilla!
- Cati (6/5): Not too bad - Location and cleanness TV didn't work
Blankets didn't have a good cover at all
Office was closed anytime and their emergency number didn't get answered !!
- Alba (7/5): -
- Kołodziejska (9/5): -
- Elena (8/5): - Molto spaziosa L odore della fogna

- Thomas (10/5): -
- Matteo (6/5): -
- ailoleta (5/5): - La ubicació. I havia poc internet al carrer i va ser difícil entrar el primer dia..Té poca llum. El sofà està massa trencat. La cortina pel terra. La televisió no funcionava. Això sí, la ven reparar, i la cortina , en cinc minuts. Rapidíssim
En això, enhorabona
- Terézia (8/5): - All was good, but staff was great and helpful, it was really clean Cold a bit
- Pietro (8/5): Viaggio di famiglia - la posizione vicino alla Rambla, gli spazi ampi della casa Il climatizzatore acceso con la pompa di calore, molto rumoroso con lo split sul balcone
- Elisa (10/5): -
- Ullah (8/5): - Todo
- Beatrice (8/5): -
- Jacqueline (9/5): -
- Charlie (5/5): L’emplacement est bien et l’appartement a du charme, la literie est confortable mais l’équipement et le service n’est pa - La literie et la propreté.
Le charme du bâtiment.
L’emplacement. Le logement est mal équipé pour un court séjour. Pas de condiments minimum, torchon, couette, grille du four, plat allent au four, cafetière inadaptée…
Il faisait très froid quand nous sommes arrivés.
La nuit numéro 2, du bruits importants du voisinage.
- Dee (7/5): Enjoyed our stay. 5 minutes walk to Palau Güell. - Location, clean and tidy, character of the house around Gothic Quarter. Furnitures are old and tired ( Ikea items) which are not complimenting characters with the house.
- Jacques (7/5): Bon séjour - Appartement ancien rénové comprenant 1 entrée, 2 vraies chambres à coucher, 1 pièce à vivre avec cuisine attenante, 1 salle de bain et 1 petit balcon, le tout donnant sur une rue calme. L'appartement est proche du métro ligne 3 et de nombreux commerces alimentaires et autres. Nous avons également utilisé la consigne gratuite au rez de chaussée le matin du départ. Il y a un service client par téléphone qui nous a permis de résoudre notre problème de chauffage en 24 heures. L'appartement ne comprenait qu'un seul climatiseur réversible et celui-ci ne fonctionnait pas bien, rien dans les chambres. Nous avions donc froid et après plusieurs messages et appels téléphoniques, nous avons pu déménager dans un appartement identique au 3ème étage (avec ascenseur). Le climatiseur fonctionnait correctement. Globalement, les lieux ne sont pas bien entretenus et une quantité de petites choses ne fonctionnaient pas ou étaient détériorées (lampes de chevet, micro-onde, etc ...) Le montant de la taxe de séjour était beaucoup plus élevé que celui indiqué sur Booking
- Andrea Francesco (10/5): - Struttura molto accogliente e l'host era una persona gentilissima e disponibilissima.
- Farhan (1/5): Very bad decision to booked this property 😟 - The location is very good , its near to everything . There is no shower gel ,no handwash gel , i request them for early check in but they make me stay for check in until 3 o clock but then a stuff come to my room and give me towel for complete there work . The appartment is too high rated but not a good service . Shower room missing the part of door and not clean . Television its like 1900,s centuries. 😡😡😡
- Mercè (7/5): Còmode i pràctic. - Molt ben situat! Façana plena de grafitis. I a l’apartament hi havia algunes zones una mica deteriorades, com un radiador despenjat i d’una paret queia el guix.
- Monica (7/5): -
- fabrizia (8/5): -
- Aja (8/5): - Tout Un peu bruyant.
- katja (10/5): - Отличные аппартаменты! Расположение супер! Большие! Было даже застелено на большее количество, чем указывали. Цена супер! -
- Andrea (1/5): Inaccettabile sotto tutto i punti di vista. - La struttura si trova in una via estremamente rumorosa, non offre minimo isolamento dai rumori, le finestre non chiudono neppure correttamente. Il riscaldamento non funziona, il bagno è pieno di muffa, la pulizia generale inadeguata ed estremamente superficiale. Le dotazioni per gli ospiti inadeguate: mancavano asciugamani, un ospite era senza coperta, dotazioni cucina casuali, tanti cucchiai mancavano forchette piatti e coltelli per tutti gli ospiti. Carta igienica insufficiente per il soggiorno, come tra l’altro bagnoschiuma etc… la serratura elettronica al secondo giorno ha smesso di funzionare e la porta di ingresso non si poteva chiudere. Abbiamo dovuto portare i bagagli con noi e dormire con una sedia addossata alla porta. Ma cosa più inaccettabile, soprattutto in riferimento al problema alla serratura, l’assistenza è inesistente. Abbiamo segnalato il problema al personale che si occupa delle pulizie, abbiamo avuto come risposta di chiamare l’assistenza. Ai numeri di telefono indicati non abbiamo avuto alcuna risposta. Abbiamo scritto alla struttura e dopo due giorni ancora nessuna risposta. Abbiamo segnalato anche la problematica a Booking ma anche così nessuna risposta. In conclusione mi sento di sconsigliare la struttura. Ne ho frequentate molte, di tutti i livelli, ma questa ritengo sia stata la mia peggior esperienza. Non tornerei neppure gratis.
- daniuska (9/5): -
- Clémence (8/5): Super séjour et super hôte ! Nous reviendrons avec plaisir :) Merci encore !! -
- Antonio (10/5): Comodo e in posizione fantastica - Struttura in pieno centro, parallela della Rambla, di fronte al Barrio Gotico, 5 minuti a piedi dalla metro, quartiere tranquillo anche di sera. Tutto a portata di mano a piedi. Appartamento con ampi spazi e accessi elettronici, comodi, gestibili e senza chiavi da scordare. Deposito bagagli gratuito e autonomo, casa attrezzata per cucinare e assistenza attenta e gentile. Check in fatto alle 11 di mattina completamente gratuito (grazie ancora). Rapporto qualità prezzo eccezionale
- Constanza (8/5): Piola - Buena ubi Se veía peligroso de noche
- Abderrahman (7/5): -
- Arunas Purokevicius (6/5): -
- Khettabi (7/5): -
- Judit (4/5): Estado muy descuidado del apartamento - La ubicación era excelente. El estado de mantenimiento del apartamento era deficiente. Tuvimos que cambiarnos de apartamento porque el aparato de aire acondicionado y calefaccion tenía roto el enchufe, algo que se sabía de antemano y no era una avería fortuita. Otras instalaciones también estaban rotas (mampara, gresites caídos). Además el elemento que hace de sofá es una cama sin cojines de respaldo que lo hace muy incómodo y no es como sale en las fotos.
- Алексей (8/5): - Очень удобное местоположение - все в шаговой доступности: магазины, рестораны, достопримечательности. Хорошая транспортная развязка. Отзывчивые хозяева.
