Weekend in August
Pros: Located very close to a metro and a train station meant it was easy to get around Barcelona and all attractions. Very close to Ramblas and Port/Beach/Gothic Quarter. There are lots of great restaurants on the back streets across the main road. The accommodation is really nice if you like high ceilings and beams giving a feeling of space. Three double rooms.. There are two single beds per room. One is soft, one firmer which may be deliberate so guests have a choice. The kitchen is well equipped. Busy on the square below, so some noise late evening. Mini-marts and a bakery on the doorstep for breakfast provisions.
Cons: Nothing.

Amazing!
Pros: Location was incredible - within walking distance to so many attractions!
Cons: There were a few bits in the accommodation that are in need of repair. It didn’t affect our stay but would significantly improve the overall look of the accommodation. The windows did not close fully and there was a lot of noise throughout the night.

Great apartment, great location, great price
Pros: Apartment was really clean and comfortable. Was a ten minute walk from the Ramblas but that meant it was a nice walk through the gothic quarter each day. Not too far of a walk to port Olympic either.
Cons: Couple of the bedrooms didn’t have air conditioning so it got quite warm, but that could just be that we are soft and from the north of England so are used to being cold

Great stay great location , would book again .
Pros: Lovely old building, plenty of space , nice hot showers and good kitchen facilities. Location is great for the gothic quarter and Metro, mainline stations and buses all outside. Would definitely book again
Cons: There are a lot of stairs to the higher apartments, not a problem for me but maybe to other people. Collection the keys from another area wasn’t ideal and could be easily resolved with a key safe.

Perfect
Pros: Beautiful spacious apartment. Perfect location for seeing the sights and close to all amenities. Great communication from host regarding arrival. Had everything we needed to cater for ourselves and walking distance to great restaurants. Lovely rooftop terrace which would be fantastic in summer. Just perfect for a short break and would definitely return
Cons: The only slight downside was it was rather noisy outside at times and not very soundproof. But this cannot be helped and was due to the traditional-ness of the apartment. In no way caused anyone problems

Nice apartment in great location
Pros: Great location, lovely rooftop patio, spacious rooms, it had everything we needed
Cons: Lots of stairs to climb but there’s a warning about, we just didn’t expect it to be that much 🙃squeaky beds and the painting on wall was giving me nightmares but that just my personal opinion

Peaceful, near pretty much everthing, Pleasant!
Pros: The property was an older building, so we got to experience a full Barcelona experience. It had a roof top terrace which a had a good view! It was nice and cozy.
Cons: That we were put up in the 5th floor and the property does not have an elevator. Again, it's an older building so lots of stairs to climb. We don't blame the property, we should have fully read the description, in which I'm sure lists the fact that there isn't an elevator, however we failed to do so. I wouldn't recommend it to someone with lots of luggages/baggages, staying on 4th or 5th floor. If your a backpacker or a fitness person then it's a breeze. However, there is always a positive! Even though we weren't aware that the unit was on the 5th floor and we did travel heavy it prepared us to take-on the 300 steps at the leaning tower os Pisa. We stayed in Barcelona 3 days before our cruise and we were going up and down those 79 steps, in those 3 days, to the 5th floor like champs!! If your staying on the 5th floor there are a few more steps to get to the roof top.

Lovely quirky apartment
Pros: Good value, reasonable facilities, the roof terrace is lovely, beds were comfy, spacious lounge with small but useful kitchen. Bedrooms have air con. Great location with easy access to the old city, Picasso museum harbour area as well as the bus routes. 2 minute walk to the train station. Located overlooking a lovely square, set away from the main routes, so nice and quiet.
Cons: Liked it all but be warned there are 4/5 sets of stairs to climb (no lift as it's a traditional spainish apartment block).

Fantastische locatie
Pros: Het appartement ligt op een fantastische locatie. Je loopt zo de leuke wijken in met veel shops, restaurants en bezienswaardigheden. Ook het strand is op korte loopafstand. De faciliteiten binnen het appartement zijn prima. Ruime slaapkamers met goede bedden. Ook het dakterras is ruim. De communicatie met de verhuurder was prettig met snelle reacties op vragen.
Cons: De foto's op Booking.com doen vermoeden dat het dakterras aan het appartement vast zit. Dit is echter niet het geval. Hiervoor moet je eerst het trappenhuis in om er te kunnen komen. Het betreft een gemeenschappelijk dakterras. We hebben verder geen andere bewoners van het gebouw op het terras gezien. De terrasmeubels hebben betere tijden gehad.
