Ideal for a family to have quality time at a home away from home. very close to metro station and placa catalunya the "nerve centre" of barcelona.Generously sized apartment which was very well appointed and had a decent size bed for two tall people. Not too noisy given its central location. Just make sure you get good instructions on how to find your particular apartment as they are not located at the key pick up point. Really perfect location of the apartment, comfortable and clean. Excellent value for money.

Also we appreciated the cleanliness and the well - equipped kitchen. Appartment was comfortable and clean and very centrally located.Location,cleanliness. The size of the apartment suited us greatly and was ina good location. The apartment was very nice and the stay was very friendly. long term stay will be better. Location was perfect. The apartment was modern and comfortable. it was in a central location. Good location. Location. (a) Location in the city, just 5 minutes away from Sants. Although requiring travel by public transport to get to places, the location makes it a very short journey each time. (b) The amenities - washing machine, wireless internet, DVD player. (c) Security - lockable front door of the building. (d) Very spacious.Facilities, kitchen, windows to backyard (no traffic noice). Good safe area. Balcony. Clean. Central key pick up.Good location and clean apartment. The location is superb, smack on the city center.It was nice to have our own apartment with a fridge, oven and washer.However, there was no dryer or clothes line, which made the washer alittle useless. Also, there was no phone in the apartment. Thefurnishings were rather basic. Separate bedrooms, space. Relatively central location. No dislikes at all. From the washing machine in the pretty bathroom tothe fully-appointed kitchen, the tv and the beds (ok, they were a littletoo firm for my taste). And it was sooo quiet - even with streetconstruction going on which we were unaware of until we left theapartment for the day. Couldn't hear it at all.The guest has to go to the office to check-in which could be unpleasant if it's at a late hour at night, however everything else was great. Had to pay in full upon arrival without seeing the apartment, but it was well worth it.towels were old and did not smell good. Only issue, was not with the apartment, but the neighbours. Quite a noisy lot at night so earplugs advised!!. it was a little expensive but very comfortable. To repair the lock at doors.the towels. There were no "drawers" of any sort in the apartment for your bits and bobs! The apartments by this company are spread around the placa catalunya and are some distance from their office at ronda universitat which can be an inconvenience when you have got heavy luggage to drag down the street. They could let people know the exact location in advance and save hassle for the rest of the family.The guidance leaflet in the apartment says that the lagguage can be left at Estació de França after checking out, but in fact the only place which can be used for luggage storage is Estacio Sants. nope. We had a lovely time. 3 rooms but only one window)). window isolation, it was rather cold in some rooms. It was not very clear on the website how far away the apartment we were booked to stay in was from the office we checked in at. They were probably a mile apart which is pretty substantial, it was a good thing we had a friend there to drive us. hot water was not enough. It was very inconvenient to pick-up the key at one location and then having to go to the apartment which was still another 10min drive away. We had to keep our taxi waiting outside while we went into the office to get the key. I also did not like that the security deposit was charged to my card, and I had to return home in good faith that it would be refunded,but to me relief it was refunded. i did not appreciate the fact that first we had to go and pick up the keys than head toward the apartment. Moreover, the desitination on the website was incorrect. The desitination from the Ramblas was that of their offices and not of the apartment. Would be nice to have air conditioning in the rooms. Did not think it was made clear that the address given was a key pick up only.The apartment was 2 blocks from where we were picking up the keys. We had to walk carrying our things or pay another cab fair to take us there. (a) It's too far to get anywhere by foot, and the traffic creates constant noise at night. (b) The mattresses were so soft that when I leaned with my knee on the bed, it almost got stuck between the slats. (c) Staff don't reply to emails sent a week before arrival. (d) Water heater capacity not enough for 2 people to shower in succession.Double room very small. Drainy smell in one of the bathrooms. Not enough towels and no air con in room.The location stated on the map was of the head office, not of the apartment itself. So after getting to the address, we had to collect keys and make our way back to the apartment with luggage through the city. staff were curt and tried to move our appartments that we we told would be together.As no parking was included, we went about to find our own. It wasrather difficult to find a 24 hour parking garage and it cost 25 eurosa night... The noise from the adjoining apartment was excessive. However we did not complain. Also the shower was very weak in power and basic.The place is not good , also the blanket not clean. Not of high quality facilities. Rather rudimentary.
