We enjoyed a brilliant stay at the apartments. They are ideally located at the top of the Barri Gotic and very close to Placa de Catalunya. The apartment was perfectly kitted out for our family of 4 and the balcony overlooking the square was a haven for people watching after a long day sightseeing.
It wasn’t noisy at all (the “road” outside is populated by only taxis, bikes and trash collectors) apart from one evening when a new store just below had an opening night and to be honest, we were just sad not to be joining in! I wish them good luck - it looked like a true taste of Barcelona off the tourist track.
Clean, easy to use, ingenious and safe entry system, the only two things of any note I have to say about the whole experience in the apartment is 1) check junk email as lots of my correspondence ended up there even though I added them as a safe sender and 2) they aren’t kidding about the 4pm check in - we arrived at 3.15pm and couldn’t get in, but of course that was to be expected - the lockers downstairs for luggage worked for us even with 3 big bags and we went and got groceries from Carrefour (n.b. we didn’t rely on the lockers on our leaving day as 2 of them were broken when we arrived and we didn’t want to risk it). Trash and recycling can be found if you head left, almost to the Main Street leading to Urquinaona and don’t miss the violin duo often found performing in the Catedral square at night.
Do not hesitate to book your stay here, especially for families.
