Guest Reviews

• rekam2026 (10/5): Excellent - Everything was amazing! The hotel was perfect for me And my friends. The reception was really kind And helpful. I recommend!🥰🥰
• milica9797 (10/5): Great and comfy apartments - I checked in at one of the smaller apartments in the beginning. Santiago was very helpful from the beginning with leaving the keys in the reception so I didn’t have to check in at Muntaner after 18:00. Later we moved to a bigger apartment which was very comfy. Santiago once again helped alot by letting us check in earlier as I had a meeting. He also gave us a discount! The heating in the apartments are great, and you have all the necessary things you need such as kitchen equipment, washing machine, towels etc. Very nice location as well! Moreover, there was a lot of fighting from the neighbour apartment one night that woke us up. We called the reception and the nightshift took it very serious and solved the situation in a minute. Very much appreciated.
• Erika tatiana (10/5): - It was a great experience
• Kheira (2/5): Honteux - L’hôtel nous a attribué un appartement en sous sol avec plein de cafards à la sdb et dans la chambre. Puis les escaliers n’étaient pas sécurisés pour les enfants. Et le pire c’est qu’ils m’ont prélevé la caution de 350€ alors que nous avons rendu le lieu dans un parfait état. Je dois maintenant faire toute une procédure pour demander la restitution de cette caution.
• Marcos (10/5): - Nice place! I will combecak
• HEIDY (6/5): Agradable. - Habitación limpia y confortable.
• Teodora (6/5): - Very rude guy at the front desk, the apartment isn’t suitable for a family with small kids. Everything is open so there is no privacy to change if the bathroom is occupied. No locks on bathroom just sliding door. Area is okay it was easy to take the bus from there.
• Daniel (6/5): - Sehr sehr schlechtes wlan Im Hotelzimmer gab es kein wlan, man musste dafür in die Lobby gehen
• lukedM3503TD (8/5): - Great little apartment, enjoyed a long weekend in Barca. Just a concern then receptionist said I’d get the €350 back by Friday 18th July since we checked out on Monday the 14th. Other than that it was a good apartment to stay in.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Bra läge men vi hade inte valt detta boende igen. - Stort fint rum men tyvärr inte avdelat som bilder och beskrivning. Trasig bäddsoffa som vi påpekade första dagen men inte fick åtgärdat. Dessutom stopp i avloppen så det blev bara snabbduschar. Bra städat. Väldigt lyhört precis som andra beskrivet. Men väldigt bra läge i stan.
• Cristian (10/5): - Beach and train station very close
• michelletV545NL (6/5): Damage deposit - Abit worried when we are going to our damage deposit back, we checked out at 10am Wednesday 12th March, we were unaware about the damage deposit of £350, so was abit of a shock, there was no-one on reception desk when we left so couldn't ask anyone. We left the apartment spotless as worried about getting it back. Location was abit too far away from what we needed. Apartment clean and comfortable. Reception helpful apart from the shock of having to pay 350 euro when arriving. Can anyone advise.
• Fabian (10/5): - All good
• ivanamJ4317DO (8/5): Barcelona aparthotel - Nice stay at great location. Metro station nearby, also many supermercato to buy food and supplies. 👍
• Miguel Angel (8/5): - Muy buena en términos generales
• Joe (10/5): - I had a wonderful stay at Apart Hotel República. The apartment was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the location was perfect—central yet quiet. With great amenities, it offered both comfort and convenience. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Barcelona.
• Lorenzo - Xavier (10/5): - Excellent! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very clean and central to everything.
• Y2923ZFraymondd (10/5): Stay at Republica - Everything was great, I would recommend this place to anyone traveling to Barcelona Spain. Perfect location for the metro shops and sites. The room has everything we needed, it really made our stay feel like home. They even held out luggages after we checked out, so we can enjoy the city before our flight, also Thank you to Santiago for great customer service.
• amberdavies2199 (2/5): AVOID AVOID AVOID - AVOID AVOID AVOID Honestly, the staff were ok and the room itself was nice but they demanded a 350 EURO deposit upon arrival which wasn’t stated in my booking. I had to hand over all my spending money (and more) to them with no guarantee it’ll come back. When I explained that I didn’t have this large sum to spare, I was told my options were to cancel and be stranded in Barcelona or pay it - that’s it. I felt I couldn’t even move in my apartment for fear of my deposit being knocked down. There were ‘quiet hours’ after 9pm so felt I couldn’t stay out later than that as I was worried of losing my deposit. Completely ruined my holiday. The bed was broken, the sofa was broken, all the kitchen cupboards were hanging off their hinges and they have the cheek to say I might damage anything!! 4 days here and no cleaning, no bed change, no towel change or toilet roll change!! We also had to take our own rubbish out to the bin on the other side of the road. Absolutely disgusting. Avoid !!!!
• etnae2025 (10/5): My experience at Aparthotel La Republica. - What stood out the most was Larry’s friendly demeanor and his willingness to go above and beyond. Whether it was offering helpful suggestions or simply making conversation, his exceptional customer service made a lasting impression. Keep up the amazing work, Larry!
• 385onak (8/5): My experience at the hotel - I had a wonderful experience at the Aparthotel República thanks to Lerry, our receptionist. He is a very friendly guy who helped us with every difficulty we faced during our stay in Barcelona. Lerry was always ready to offer assistance and made us feel welcome. We shared many friendly jokes with him and our group, making our stay even more enjoyable. Thank you, Lerry, for everything!
• Csmegarch (8/5): Quite expensive - It was nice and clean but I didn’t feel safe as they were very strict about the check out and how the room was supposed to be left. I was scared in case something by accident will be broke down since there was an amount that was kept in advance as an insurance
• BENDJAMA (8/5): - Tres bon sejour entre amis
• Jam66AL (4/5): good location - limited in comfort - I had to take this option as there was no available hotel in that area. It was tiny bit cheaper than a hotel, but obviously far less services. The shower head in the bathroom was defect, furniture were out of metal and plastic and accordingly very uncomfortable and cold.
• zippy545 (10/5): Great apartments - Great apartments with really helpful staff. Great location in El Poblenou, easy metro journey to the centre of the city.
• Yenilivette (10/5): - Todo espectacular, nada negativo.
• Dimme_Gi_ (6/5): Great but can be much better - Great location. Close to the beach, public transportation, bars and entertainment. Close to many of the starting locations of tours (Andorra bus tour, Dalí theater museum tour etc) Few problems in the check in as the half of the beds were not ready and missing one set of bed covers that I was able to get after we spent the first night in the room. This can be GREATLY improved.
• carolinehG6794RE (4/5): Sadly a very poor experience - I very rarely write a negative review. However, sadly our stay did not go well There was very poor soundproofing- loud noises from outside all night and our neighbouring rooms. One group were shouting at 2.30am. We had disturbed sleep every night. There were lots of water stains on the ceiling and the water tank above us leaked badly whenever we, our neighbours and the room upstairs showered. We informed services and reception day 2 of our stay & were told we couldn’t change rooms and it would be fixed. We had to miss our pre booked trip to monserat as we had to wait to speak to reception at 10.30. We couldn’t get a refund for this. Day 3 the same happened. We had to leave the hotel and stay at another hotel as the water was landing on the sofa bed, and we had another pre-booked trip to the cathedral which we did not want to miss. The roof pool was also out of action and we had no WiFi due to lack of reception. Sadly this ruined our holiday that I had booked 2 months in advance for my husbands birthday
• Guest_KK (2/5): Poor rooms, bad value for money - They gave us a room in cellar which was extremely loud and no day light although the room was advertised as a lot natural light.
• PATRICIA DE BARROS (10/5): - Hospedagem muito confortável e ambiente moderno. Chegamos às 23h e não tivemos problemas com o check-in, tinha uma pessoa na recepção para atender. O apartamento é bem equipado e muito próximo ao metrô, ficou muito fácil locomoção sem carro. Local também é seguro.
• Leesdoo (8/5): Nice apartment customer service could be better - Nice apartment ok location customer service could be better we booked 3 apartments check in was at 3pm but couldn’t get into one of the rooms until gone 11pm Witch caused distress within group other than that all good
• Leomar (2/5): Disappointment - We were very disappointed with this stay. The check in experience was a true nightmare. Staff was very rude, and apparently we had to go to another location almkat 30 minutes away to do the check in. The apartment was not the cleanest one. They charge you extra for fresh towels, and they expect you to take out the trash yourself otherwise they will charge you for this also. I would not recommebd anybody to stay here.
• zouba (8/5): Dans l’ensemble satisfaisant - Localisation géographique exceptionnelle Accès piscine trop restreint sur les horaires et capacité trop petite au regard de la taille de l’établissement Propreté de la salle d’eau à revoir ( joints sales)
• Nomad45421944387 (10/5): A good hotel in Barcelona - It was a very pleasent stay and we enjoyed the pool at the rooftop. It was central and close to the metrostation.
• anneac1980 (2/5): WORST STAY/NO SLEEP - We spend the WORST 5 nights EVER at Aparthotel La Republica (2 adults and 2 children in apartment 2.5) The apartment, location, check-in service was fantastic. But the nights it was so terrible. It was so noisy and we didn't sleep for 5 nights. There were so many young people/groups sitting at the stairways/common areas talking/laughing all night long. We complained at the reception several times and also asked the young people to be quiet ourselves. The apartment has a night portier and it says in their guidelines that: ALL ACTIVITY IN THE BUILDING'S COMMON AREAS IS FORBIDDEN DURING 9:00 PM TO 10:00 AM, but unfortunately the portier don’t follow close enough. He sits in at ‘cage’ at the entrance and apparently can’t hear (or don’t care) what’s going on. When we addressed the night portier at one point, he told us that he couldn't force them to leave/be quiet.. WHAT??? So we had to ask them, ourselves, to go to sleep or leave for a bar. We asked the portier to do more tours in the common areas, but he just replied that we shouldn’t tell him how to do his job.. On our last night we had to leave for the airport at 03.30am.. I went down to the night portier 3 times between 00.30 am and 01.30 to tell him there were young guys in the common areas again again. This time he did a tour and it help for like 10-15min. until the next group of young people came. All the young people was quite polite and said ‘I sorry’, when we confronted them. It was simply young people having fun. The sound insulation in this building is so bad, so unless you want to stay awake all night or can sleep from anything, I suggest you find another place to stay. Really a pity as everything else is perfect. We really had the worst holiday in Barcelona due to lack of sleep
• M8578YIamandaw (8/5): Excellent location. - Took my 3 children for 3 nights. Basic apartment, perhaps slightly small for 4 of us. Fab location- 15 mins walk to beach, 2 mins to lacuna metro and 7 mins to supermercado. Could hear underground at night so may impact light sleeper - didn't bother us, was otherwise quiet neighbourhood. Reception barely manned so unable to leave bags with them at checkout, as promised - my one grumble. Strictly instructions re cleaning afterwards to ensure deposit returned but this was fine and received 2 days after departure. Pool very small but okay for dip to cool off. Communication with company prior to arrival was excellent.
• Yongho (8/5): 대부분 좋음 - 출장으로 이용했고 가성비, 위치 등 대부분 만족했으나 두가지 문제점이 있었다. 첫째, 직원의 부재로 19시 이후 체크인이 안되는 문제(굉장히 당황스러움), 둘째, 숙소 내부에 개미가 많아서 음식물 처리에 신경쓰였고, 같이 이용하는 사람들 모두 개미에게 여러번 물려서 불편했음.
• maksym139 (10/5): We really enjoyed - We really enjoyed.The room was cozy and beautiful. Everything you needed was in the room. The location is very good both to shops and to the sea.
• Laurentiu (8/5): Spacious, clean, in El Poblenou quartier - A convenient location in El Poblenou quartier in Barcelona, relatively close to the not so crowded Bogatell beach. Walking distance to beach, pedestrian area of the quartier and Westfield Glòries Mall. Near by metro (underground) station. Plenty clear communication to the fact is no attendance at the reception in between 18:00 and 22:00 and easy to adjust your plan according to this. Decent amenities and friendly personnel. Access to the roof pool a bonus ( will be great if available for longer hours in the evening) Low cleaning schedule is great for chill holiday time.
• Liliya (8/5): - I would not call this a hotel. There are no towel changes, nor sheets. 4 people had to share same towels for 1 week. The trash from the room had to be removed and walked across the street after check out, failure to do so, would result in a deposit charge, because apparently cleaning person doesn't take trash out. The hotel is close to the ocean, which is what we were looking for. The pool idea is cool, but tiny.
• KRISTEN (10/5): Delightful stay - Property was clean and well maintained. Staff was very courteous and responsive.
• Jean-Pierre (6/5): - J'arrive à 18heures trente et personne n'était à la réception. J'ai perdu deux heures pour récupérer les clefs à une autre adresse. La douche est très mal faite.
• Ahmet (8/5): - Overall, the stay was very good. The location is relatively central, making it easy to get to the city center. The fact that towels are changed for a fee personally bothered me. However, you could also wash everything yourself in the available washing machine. The value for the price was really okay and good.
• Kristian (8/5): - Decent location. Checking in was quite difficult. Only provide one towel per person, there is a washing machine but you need to buy your own washing machine tablets. You’re on a limited hot water meter. One pillow per person.
• Imran Farook (10/5): - Excellent the staff the location & Cleanness of the apartment. I have nothing negative to say. My stay was pleasant.
• Imran Farook (10/5): - Excellent the staff the location & Cleanness of the apartment. I have nothing negative to say. My stay was pleasant.
• Lilian (8/5): Séjour Barcelone - Appart hôtel bien situé avec le métro à proximité. Chambre spacieuse, propre et avec l'équipement nécessaire. Quartier calme, bien fréquenté et proche des plages de Barcelone. À recommander.
• Michael (10/5): - Dejligt lejlighedshotel med store lejligheder, beliggende i roligt kvarter, tæt på metro, så man er i centrum på ca. 15 minutter.
• Jürgen (8/5): - Der moderne Stil und die Ausstattung haben uns sehr gefallen
• Andrea (10/5): - The room was beautiful! Our family of 4 felt very comfortable there.
• Aziz (8/5): - Wir konnten an einem Abend nicht ins Zimmer, weil die Karten nicht funktionierten. Telefonisch haben wir nicht sofort jemand erreicht. Als nach einer viertel Stunde die Telefonate geklappt haben, ging es 25 min. bis die Karten mit einer Taxi bei uns eintrafen. Es gab auch noch bei anderen Gästen an diesem Abend das gleiche Problem. Bei uns im Schlaffzimmer stellte immer wieder das Klima sich aus. Als sie uns geklärt hatten, das Problem sei gelöst, war dies leider nicht der Fall. Die Mitarbeiter am Reception waren immer sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
• Sandra (6/5): - Too noisy, there are no rules. Don’t respect the sleeping time of orhers
• Mykhailo (4/5): If you have a chance, look for another hotel. - It is not a bad location: it is about 3 minutes to the subway station and 10 minutes to get to the beach. That's about all the advantages of this hotel. Much more about disadvantages: most idiotic self-check-in procedure I've ever met (you have to pass it in another hotel in another part of the city), you must read intently the hotel's conditions not to be extra charged, a combination of iron furniture + cement floor will give you unforgettable squeaking sounds, window in the toilet that allows everyone to admire your profile sitting on the toilet, bloody cold floor, etc. So if you have a chance, look for another hotel.
• Andrew (8/5): - Spacious
• NOra (10/5): - Will go again lovely and comfort great location
• Michael (6/5): - Nice to have in room laundry but it would be nice to have a set of instructions for use as the make and model was foreign to us
• yolanda (10/5): - Muy recomendable, cerca de muchos lugares
• Frank (10/5): - Very nice and stylish apartment. Not far from the beach and close to an Metro station.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Gradually declining experience - The living experience here is gradually declining… and staff is rude. That was a good starting at the very beginning, greeted by a very nice lady and explained everything clearly. The room was in good condition and big with all the facilities. However, there are a few things that we felt the apartment needs massive improvements. 1. Supplies of personal hygiene products We in a group of three are staying for 3 nights. 2 bottles of shampoo and shower gel are barely enough for us. We then asked for one extra shower gel, but the receptionist said we usually provide just 2 for each room. If you need extra, you will be charged… To be honest, as a 4-star apartment which the room price is not that cheap shouldn’t propose this restriction to the tenants. This should be a low cost for the hotel but they can in turn get a better reputation. This is what the management should consider. 2. Handling of trash and rubbish As a 4-star apartment, we didn’t expect to handle our trash on the checkout date. This doesn’t sound to be a very good living experience. 3. Passive aggressive manner from the staff We have stored our luggage on the checkout date. When we tried to get our luggage, there was no one at the reception and there was a sign saying “Back in 5 minutes”. Eventually, when the staff came back, he gave us an attitude by blaming us disturbing his lunch hour.
• Pamela Joan (10/5): Great, Great, Great! - Great building, great location, great staff!
• Byungchul (2/5): - So many things were bad during the stay, but the most disgusting thing is this. I saw small flies here and there, and wandering where it comes from, and found out that it was from the open ceiling of the open loft. I checked it by standing on the counter top, and found a lot of garbage on the loft ceiling including used paper plate with food stain on. As result, I stayed jail cell with garbage next to my bed. Very disappointed and disgusting. I chose this property because I had very good experience with DerbyHotels Collection, and trusted their management, but this property proved me wrong. It was totally unwanted experience in Derby Hotels.
• Meadow (4/5): I want my money and time back - I am not a picky person but I was so disappointed with this place and it negatively impacted our time in Barcelona. Check in was very inconvenient, as we arrived when no one was on site and had to pay for an expensive taxi to pick up the keys. The room was not as described and sleeping arrangements were uncomfortable. More generally, the place had the feel of a prison. The rooftop pool hours were very limited. Once we were able to access it, we saw it was seriously neglected. My child swam anyway and got terribly sick. When I reported the issue I got a brush off twice, with staff insisting that no one else had complained. I paid three times less at other places in Spain and had a far more pleasant experience.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Unhelpful and like a prison cell - Hotel was a nightmare from arriving after the flight was delayed. Refused to check us into the hotel even though there was a person on the desk looking at u through the glass at 19:00. Instead said we had to come back 4 hours later, or go to the other side of the city to collect the keys. Called 3.5 hrs later to say we were going to collect the keys and they said that option is not available anymore, need to come back at 1am or go to another location to get the keys. By this time it is 23:30 at night with 2 children in tow. Left with no choice, we then travel back and forth to an alternate location, costing us 30EUR in taxis and 1hr of time before we can then get into the apartment. They then refused to pay any compensation for this arrangement we were never told about, instead saying we could have self checked-in!! Which was never mentioned in any paperwork or on any of the phone calls. Once you get in the place is like mini prison cell blocks, where I was told call off if I hear of any parties going on. I understand for the price what I was getting, but add another 30EUR on top and no one that seemed to care, it’s one I won’t be visiting again. Also spoke to hotels.com for the refund and they too washed their hands of the issue on several occasions, even though they were told of the alternative checkin situation and never passed that information on. Took 3 conversations with hotels.com of 20-40 minutes to get any decent feedback. Not great service all for 30 EUR.
• Laura (6/5): - They charge $8 “tourist” fee per person. Make sure you get there at the times they ask, other wise, like they said, you will have to wait OR go to another location to check in. There was rat poop on one of the mattresses, one of the tv’s didnt work, one of the showers didnt have a closing door so the water wouldn’t come out, the place took over two hours to warm up, and you have to take out the trash. The only positive I found was the location. Close to La Sagrada Familia and other must sees… didn’t have to pay for parking bc i was lucky both nights and found free parking… other wise, it would have been an additional $20 euros
• Julie (10/5): Great hotel, convenient and comfortable - We loved both stays here. Hotel is convenient and comfortable, breakfast is amazing, gym is nice, and the people who work there are wonderful. Special shout-out to Jordi at the front desk who provided us great service.
• Sachi (8/5): - The exterior looks baroque but the interior is very modern - our unit had a 2- 3 story high ceiling! large space (more lighting would have been useful)
• Joseph B (10/5): - This is a pretty cool place. The vibes chill and it's close to the beach. My dog definitely enjoyed it as well, very comfortable and lots of really nice people.
• Goran (6/5): Not great - Ok but not great. I wouldn’t stay here again. For what I paid I could have stayed in some really nice hotels.
• Darpankumar (6/5): - Very nice apartment and 10 minutes walk from beach but check-in not possible between 6.30-11pm. You have to walk one hour to collect key (or take taxi). Reception helpful and contactable on phone but not great to arrive off a plane and have to lose time collecting a key from a different location. Restriction not clear when making non-refundable booking.
• Verified traveler (6/5): 해변가기는 좋으나 방음이 너무 안되요 - 처음 도착했을 때 크리스마스로 인해서 무인 체크인 시스템을 이용했음 방법이 수월했고 샐프 체크인을 하기에 무리없었음 숙소 자체도 깨끗하고 지하철 역에서 5분 거리에 있어서 시내 접근하기 쉬웠음 바닷가를 걸어 갈 수 있는 거리에 있어서 야경 보기 좋았음 그러나 주변에 볼거리 할거리가 하나도 없음 또한 옆방의 소음이 새벽 2시까지 들리고 사소한 생활소음까지도 전부 들리는 상황이라 예민한 사람들은 잠을 잘 수가 없음
• Verified traveler (10/5): Wonderful, lots of room. - Well appointed and well located. Coffee roaster across the street and metro a couple of blocks away.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - Noise travels too easily, you will hear your neighbors, if they don’t sleep you won’t either. Otherwise good accommodation.
• Veronica (10/5): - The staff was very nice and courteous. They accommodated our needs, letting us leave our luggage after checkout. It made things easier for us. The place was spacious.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Duplex Aparthotel in Poblenou - The location of the Aparthotel was convenient to the Metroand Poblenou area of Barcelona. The unit was well equipped with appliances an utensils. It was perfect for our familly of two adults and 2 early teen children. Downside, the beds could be more comfortable and the sound carries through the wall.
• Anastasios (10/5): - Very nice place and environment! I highly recommend it
• Verified traveler (8/5): Trendy and modern - Republik is a modern designed aparthotel. took a while to find it as it’s not clearly mentioned .. but loved it .. Really good location..with a metro line next to you and free parking 8pm to 8am everyday.. walk to the beach is easy.. we loved the interiors ..trendy and open space.. big bed for us and sofa bed was comfortable for my boys. Kitchen was well equipped With a dishwasher and big fridge freezer . Bathroom toilet was very clean. Supermarket right below . Negatives ..they didn’t provide a microwave .. parking for the day is very expensive 22 euros a night. There was a email explaining check in procedure saying that you can either come before 630pm or you have to pay extra to get a person in to do check in. Self check in option was given for which they wanted a dep of 250 euros.. Swimming pool is on the roof top which was too cold for Oct. lifts are good Rubbish was expected to be thrown by us. we stayed for three days and the rooms were not serviced.. they did say they wouldn’t be. All in all highly recommended place if you want to enjoy Barcelona with style .. Best bits.. they provided a startup pack with coffee tea sugar creamer and oil ..also a Startup bag with washing up liquid and a dishwasher tab. Helped without rushing to the supermarket everyday.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great hospitality and very welcoming service from the front desk.
• Antonina (10/5): - I like this hotel. Clean, comfortable and reasonable price. I will recomend it to my friends.
• Kim (8/5): Industrial style apartments in good location - Located walking distance to beach. Back of the old Olympic village area. 5 minute walk to metro train. €7-10 for taxi to Sagrada Família. Modern apartment in quiet neighbourhood. Great beds, small but adequate kitchenette, very small lounge area, for 4 people just too small. Local bakeries nearby are handy for breakfast. Opposite apartment is coffee roaster serving great coffee. Rooftop pool (small) great after a day of sightseeing, closes at 8pm. Rooftop has view of Sagrada Família in the near distance. Management very helpful and provide guidance on seeing main attractions. Great place to stay!
• Kayleigh (10/5): Amazing apartments - Amazing, really quirky apartments. Really easy to get central, lots of nice coffee shops and supermarkets nearby. Staff were great! Highly recommend
• Verified traveler (8/5): Good apartments in a quiet area of Barcelona. - The view from the roof top pool is amazing (Torre Agbar and Sagrada Familia). The beach is an eight minute walk away. There are three metro stations nearby to get around and this is cheap and easy to use. There should be a bit more information in reception about where everything is eg. shops, bars restaurants etc as there's nothing visible nearby. It's a very quiet semi-industrial/residential area and not touristy. Things are there but can be hard to find and took us a few days to settle. The beds are comfortable, the sofa-beds are not. The air con can be noisier than usual, but we would definitely stay again and recommend it to anyone visiting Barcelona.
• miss_evers (6/5): Great location, however.... - These open plan apartments are suitable for family’s. A metro 1 block away, a large supermarket 3 blocks walk away, small rooftop pool & a short walk to the beach. HOWEVER, it appears to attract groups in their 20’s-40’s who want to party & as this is loft type accommodation the noise travels! We stayed in apartment 13, the first night a group of lads decided to make a loud drunken appearance at 5am & hold an extremely loud conversation on the balcony for 45 minutes. The following 2 nights were quiet. The final night no.14 decided to have a party. It originally started on the balcony at 11pm whereby 8 people were smoking outside our door. I politely asked them to move away & asked they keep the noise down because of my 3 children. Within minutes the music was blaring from their apartment. Not wanting to spoil everyone’s fun I let it run until midnight. At this point I complained to the security guard who was wandering around the concrete garden and could hear the noise. He informed me his senior was dealing with it. At 12.15am I complained again to be told no.14 had claimed to be ‘watching tv’. Even though you could hear the music from outside the room, I took the security guard inside my apartment so that he could experience the noise we were hearing. This time it was dealt with or so we thought. It went quiet for 45 minutes then started up again at 1am. The website clearly states no parties but from experience noise disturbance is not challenged unless someone complains.
• James (8/5): - Four of us stayed here whilst visiting Barcelona for the Primavera Sound Festival. The apartment was perfectly located for the festival and you can even walk if you needed to. The metro being so close made it easy to get around and into town when we wanted. The local area was quite quiet but we found a few nice restaurants however their opening times were pretty inconsistent. The apartment itself was probably a little small for 4 people with little space remaining once the sofa bed was open. The pool area was well kept and a good place to get some sun during the day but did get quite busy.
• Nicola (10/5): Really nice stay - We had a wonderful stay here. The staff were lovely and really helpful booking taxi's for us. The room was really nice and everything was clean. Taxi was 40 euros from the Airport, 15 to City Centre, and 6 to the clubs on the beach front. There's also loads of nice little places to eat around this area. and its a short walk to the beach. Only thing was, we brought tea bags but the lead on the kettle is too small to plug in and be used (1.3) Would highly recommend and stay again if I come back to Barcelona.
• Talita (8/5): It's a very good apartment, close to the beach - It's a very good apartment, close to the beach and very well communicated. The apartment is very clean and comfortable. The only problem is the check-in and check-out times. Between 6 pm to 11 pm there is no one to make the check-in, and if you arrive at the apartment in this gap it´s needed to go to the central offices that s incredible far from there.
• Peter (4/5): Lack of service - Not a great place with no service at all.
• emma (8/5): brilliant stay - Very very nice apartment, very close to beach which has lots of supermarkets like Lidl and restaurants and clubs, about 5 min walk away from metro station which takes you anywhere in the city, hotel staff was amazing AirCon wasn't the greatest and pool is not the biggest but gives a great view of the city esp at night and sunset Would 100% stay again
• Rhoneil (10/5): - The receptionist was amazing.
• Jack (8/5): Great stay, but be wary with late check in - Nice place to stay, safe neighborhood, close to the Llacuna metro stop, a fee restaurants and the beach. Check in was a hassle, not very accommodating to late check in--be careful if arriving after 6 pm. Other than that, we enjoyed our time
• David (8/5): Modern apartment but location not great - Arriving after 6:30 pm we were pleased that they offered us the opportunity to complete all the paperwork via email and we're given the code for a key press. Unfortunately the building security was not aware of this arrangement which took some time to resolve. The apartment itself was clean and well presented. The sofa bed was effectively in the entrance hall which wasn't ideal. We also had one disturbed night from noisy neighbours. The location is handy for the metro but you did spend a lot of time on the metro getting to most places. The surrounding area is also pretty lifeless.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - good cheap apartment and would certainly recommend it
• Marius (8/5): Nice apartment, but be aware that its not a hotel - This is an apartment, which should be understood by the name and description, so don`t expect all hotel amenities. The reception is not manned 24-hrs, you are expected to throw out your own trash etc, but in return you get an apartment close to downtown Barcelona. The sleeping couch was not that pleasant, but it was find for one night. I would do a bigger apartment or different place if we were 4 for a longer time. Wifi worked great and its an easy walk to the beach.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Open concept apartment - This open concept approach is very nice, but sub-optimal for a family, with parents looking for some intimacy.
• M Dube (2/5): Horrible experience and incompetence of Expedia - Booked an executive apartment for 4 people at Aparthotel Republic and on arrival they gave us a room we did not purchase. Instead of a double bed and two single beds. They put us in a twin single room with a sofa bed virtually in the kitchen. The room was not suitable for 4 adults and was definitely not a 4 star. After discovering this I contacted expedia immediately who were incompetent with dealing with the situation whose customer service staff where extremely rude. I spent almost a full day on the phone with them where I was referred to different people who all said they couldn't help additional i also had the phone put down on me twice. The apartment was never cleaned once . On arrival we had no pillows and towels. Overall it was a horrible experience where expedia promised to chase up after 72hrs while they carry out an investigation, which did not happen. I am extremely upset as my holiday was ruined. I will definetly not be booking with Expedia again in the future.
• Heather (8/5): Great hotel for the price. - Staff were great. Very friendly and helpful. Great hotel for the price.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Over priced charge - Expedia charged me too much for that location hotel. I feel very bad about Expedia.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Good and bad - Overall apartment good, location great. But the sofa bed was awful. Impossible to sleep through the night on, came home exhausted
• Jamila (10/5): Great service! - I loved how friendly and helpful the staff were, and hotel is near by metro station which made our stay a lot easy!! The hotel is very clean and quite!
• Alfonso (6/5): - Not a Very nice neibourhood and the beds unconfortable
• Ali (10/5): Modernist Dream. - Excellent property. Very well curated materials and exceptional choice in style of life. It's not fair to call this a 4 star since it's an apartment. If you don't need a concierge ready to handle your every need and are an independent traveler... this is place for you. It was like home away from home. Make sure you go too the grocery store on your first day and stock up so you can really use the place as a home. Also, if you need to get cash, banks are not friendly. There is a Ciaxa (sp*?) bank 5 blocks east on the road the hotel is on that will change money for you.
