Guest Reviews
- Joanna (10/5): Lovey, clean flat - Very clean and modern, more than enough space for 2 people. Plenty of kitchen and bathroom supplies provided. Great location for gothic quarter and a short walk to the beach, doesn’t feel very ‘touristy’ which was nice.
The staff responded to our query quickly and were helpful. The flat is on the 4th floor and as previous reviews have pointed out, the stairs are narrow and steep. There’s nothing that can be done about that and is not a fault of the apartment itself. I imagine a lot of Barcelona apartment blocks are similar.
- Grasso (7/5): - Propreté jolie petit appartement sympa Ruelle très bruyante
- Dodi (7/5): -
- Daniela (8/5): Il soggiorno è stato favoloso, la città è bella, pulita e piena di musei e attività da svolgere. La consiglio vivamente. - La struttura è bella, ristrutturata da poco. Gli spazi sono ampi . La posizione è perfetta in pieno centro ma in zona silenziosa. Sarebbe tutto perfetto se non ci fosse il problema scale . Non c’è l’ascensore e questo non sarebbe per molte persone un problema. Purtroppo invece le scale sono molto ripide ed alte . Quindi ritengo che per persone non abituate o adulte è una cosa da considerare. Raccomando chiedere il primo massimo secondo piano.

- Marek (9/5): -
- ALEXA (10/5): - Emplacement idéal, propreté impeccable La rue peut être bruyante devant l’appartement

- DANE (9/5): Clean, comfortable and a great location - Great location in the middle of Born down towards the beach. Close to restaurants and cafes, lots of options around. Easy to get taxis and less than 10 mins to the metro. Super clean, great space and facilities. The split double kept coming apart which was a little annoying when it happened in the night. The pillows were a little thin and there were only two, would have been good to have a couple more.
- Yevheniia (8/5): -
- Murray (8/5): Very good -
- Romy (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, comfortable, great location. The booking process was really difficult with payments not being directly through booking.com. Had to follow up the payment link, and also follow up the return of the deposit. The staff however were responsive and everything worked out in the end. Would recommend this place just make sure you’re on top of the payment process :)
- Anzelika (8/5): Very good -
- Olga (2/5): Will never come back - Apartment itself is good. Do not have any business with BCN Apartments. Their payment system is awful. To get the key we had to go by taxi to the headquartes and pay €250 deposit. They were not able to return it on my credit card, so they used wire transfer. How much did I receive? - $230 out of €250... We also paid $40 for taxi.
- Georgios (4/5): We had the most difficult experience after we have reached over 50 bookings on the platform. - Even the studio was OK the all process was awful awful awful 1st... they told us that they send us a link to pay which as you see at previous reviews of people it didn't work... after they sent us private a link to pay which didn't work either... We called and they were rude as they say this is normal process and they tried after 5 call full of strees and we pay.
2nd when we paid they ask us for deposit 250 euros and we said its nowhere clear that deposit need it. Then they text us that they will cancel the booking. We were panic and we pay the quarantee deposit which we told will return max 7 days.
3rd when we arrived on the booking site has the directions for check in which was 1 km away and I left my wife and son and 5 luggages in the rain tried to find the other building . After I could see anyone there I try to contact for over 30 minutes and they told me that when we made the payment it has a file to download with other instructions,.
4th ... room was located on 3rd floor the stairs so narrow we couldn't take up easy the luggages and the pram .
5th when we left we contact for the deposit which finally came in to our bank in the 10th day which again we were so stressed.
The all experience is a nightmare. Stay away
- Louise (8/5): Stunning location, well equipped, very decent apartment - Centrally located, well equipped kitchenette, good shower It was cramped and the threat of having your deposit not completely refunded put a bit of a dampener on the stay
- Ahmed (9/5): Great, central apartment stay - Great location in Born
Nicely decorated, airy and calming decor
Great bathroom and shower
Cute kitchenette
Easy check-in - A little dark - in many old town properties, this is normal
- Bedding sheets and pillows could be higher quality for better sleep, the mattress sheet was too small and came off the mattress every night
- Slightly inflexible process - the teams wouldn’t allow early check-in, the code only works from 3pm so I sat waiting for a few hours
- can get a little noisy at night as it’s a lively area but I brought speakers with white noise playlist
- Mario (5/5): Horrible stairs, super small and seriously overpriced - Let me start with good things (there are not many): the apartment was newly decorated, clean and the location was very good. But that’s about it. Bad things: the apartment is very small, which you cannot grasp from images on their pages. It is barely 3-4meters wide so once you get in there is hardly a place to put your luggage since otherwise you cannot walk around. There are no cabinets to hang your clothes, just one improvised, small open iron bar with hangers on it. If you open the sofa bed then you cannot open the doors to the balcony.
SUPER BAD THINGS:
The stairs to the apartment are super narrow and super steep. If you want to get the luggage to the apartment you better have a strong man in your party since he will need basically to carry it on his knees all the time since there is no space to carry it next to you, and the stairs are so steep that this makes it even worse.
Finally, the place is SERIOUSLY OVERPRICED for what it offers. I am in Barcelona at least 5 times each year so I know what I am talking about. Every time we came back from the city and had to go up those stairs I regretted that I made such a stupid choice of renting this apartment with so many other, better options.
I am including few pictures just to make sure you realize what you will get if you rent this place. I know I would NEVER rent it again. Hopefully this review helps some of you.
- Christo (9/5): Superb - Interior Design, excellent location and being allowed to use other BCN facilities to accommodate early arival and late departures. Easy check in. In the Barcelona public opem space system with many restaurants, supermarlet, metro nearby. Walking distance from beach and city center Noise from bar in the street. Noise contimued till 03.00 in the mornimg every morning except Sunday/ Monday.
- Ana (1/5): Did Not receive the refund - The apartment was ok
I broke a cup And didn’t charge I made my reservation 20 days ago And I didn’t receive The Money that they ask for the caution, the 250euros they say they return in seven days i’m still waiting for them. Also told me they Will deduct an amount from the 250 because I didn’t Wash the dishes, in 5 days no one came to clean the apartment And I have to pay more for the dishes?
When they sent me the link to make the payment of the 250 euros it didn’t work so I went to the hotel to make the payment in person.
I never gave an lower than 8 in booking but this makes me really upset.
- Bianca (9/5): Superb -
- Jakob (8/5): Very good - Location - Entire Process of booking/paying and the deposit
- 24h notice that there might not be any water
- Katherine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ela (9/5): Extremely pleasant stay! - The location was just great, with many things to do within walking distance. It's extremely close to both the sea and the city center. The neighborhood also had many nice coffee shops, restaurants, and bars.
The place was extremely clean, and exactly as shown on the pictures. We stayed on the third floor with extremely steep stairs to reach the flat. It didn't bother us that much, but it's definitely something to take into account with large suitcases or kids.
- Andrei (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elfar (8/5): Very good - It was nice They might have clean it every day
- Dio (10/5): Exceptional -
- Xavier (10/5): Nice place to stay - The facilities where up to date, clean and the location was great. People where very helpful. The payment system didn't went true Booking and that's why it was a bit complicated. This place is not recommended for families with small kids or big suitcases because of the stairs (higher than normal) and the staircase was narrow.
- Sherry (10/5): Beautiful flat in a lively neighborhood! - Great little apartment in Born, a nice area in Barcelona. Everything you need is nearby, and its located in a beautiful street in historical BCN.
The flat has some steep steps to get to (if you are in floor 2 or above), but it wasn't a problem for us.
The flat was very clean, well equipped kitchen and modern appliances.
The bathroom is small but in great condition, the shower, water temperature and pressure is incredible!
We used the wifi a lot with no issues streaming films, you could work from this flat too. The bedroom area is a little dark, but it's not too bad.
