When we arrived it was getting dark,starting to rain and we were somewhat lost. The girl had said to call 40 min before & then she told me to call back when arrived. When she buzzed door, three other people pushed in with us. I told the girl but she said it was okay. It wasn’t. One of the persons, a girl pushed into the elevator with us even though we repeatedly said no room. As we got to our floor or before, we were somewhat aggravated and distracted and our cell phone was pick pocketed. As the hotel rep (girl) met us at the elevator we were busy and distracted and didn’t see where the other girl went. Maybe they were working together. The rep could have easily met us at the door and not let these other people in. She could have easily identified the girl in our elevator as not a guest and called her out. This all could have been easily prevented, unless of course she was assisting. The apartment l, itself was very nice and clean, the other guests respectful, the cleaning staff and phone staff ver accommodating. There were 4 rooms and three baths in the apartment. We had one room and one bath with locks on both. With access to kitchen and common room.

The property was clean and well kept, the owner is very lovely and it is definitely worth the money to stay here as it is a 10 min walk to Las Ramblas; being close to the centre and metro stations. It is wonderful and I would stay here again!

Very loud!
This is not a hotel but a shared apartment space. The location is good, walkable to everything but the rooms are located above a very busy treat and the windows are not sound proofed. I wasn’t able to get any sleep as the street traffic and noise came in so loudly. Very small, no dresser or room for clothes. Bathroom was nice. Check in is strange as you need to be able to phone the host ahead of time so they can meet you. No front desk.

We could've used 2 keys to be able to leave or go back to the guest house separately. Other than that, we liked this guest house as it is located at the perfect spot for public transport, touristic and also shopping purposes. Although we were promised cleaning and towel replacement service in every three days, we didn't mind not getting it. We were happy with using the same towels for a week. My husband really enjoyed the shared kitchen, where we could actually meet the other guests. We would've liked to be able to confer more often with the staff though.

Super clean shared apartment close to all transit, connections to airport and tour buses. In the heart of the action. Only downside was that construction on the outside of the building restricted view. Great property management contact.

Property was really good in a great location, helpful staff who assisted with my late check in. Only thing, I was not aware and this was not pointed in the description- we had to share the flat with other guests. It was not something I liked since people were noisy throughout the day and night. The most important issue though was the parties next door which were lasting until 5am with people signing and shouting. That left me tired and unable to enjoy my trip in Barcelona.

Barcelona in October.
The location is perfect, very walkable to tourist areas, close to metro. Restaurants and coffee shops everywhere. Mutual use of the kitchen is good as is the shared bathroom area. Both clean daily. Beware there is a very small elevator to use, otherwise tight staircase. There is road noise 24/7.

Very poor Management skills
Our stuff was dropped out of the room on last night while we were shopping. They rented out the room while they had other rooms available. This is not professional. The manager "Diana" asked us to pay for one more night that we wanted to stay and get the reservation directly and wanted to charge us "late fee". So she pushed us to leave the place at midnight because her request was not reasonable. Very poor Management skills

Great last minute location.
Great location. Booked hotel on the day and couldn’t have been better placed. Email came quickly in English to advise arrangements. Thought late check in fee was cheeky given it wasn’t booked until post 8.30pm anyway.

Great Location, Inconsiderate hosts !!
1. At check-in time, the room was not ready, even though i came in much after the suggested check in time 2. There was a problem in the apartment, where the light switch kept on tripping and we (different people in the apartment) had to keep on resetting it 3. (This was the worst), At check-out, you guys absolutely refused to let me check out one hour later, ONE HOUR. And on top of that also refused to store the luggage for a couple of hours. As a result I just had to sit and wait in the foyer / lobby (where there are no chairs or anything to sit on) for two hours, sitting on the floor with my luggage till it was time to leave. This last thing, I just found really inconsiderate and pathetic 4. Its a room in an apartment with other guests also staying and 2 shared bathrooms. The bathrooms were almost always dirty and wet. I'm sure much consideration can be given to the cleanliness
