Extreme "No Frills" experience. It is an apartment complex. Mostly quiet and within a km of La Sagrada Familia. Neighbor hood appears safe with convenience stores and food places nearby. The issue is total experience vs. cost. The apartment is reasonably spacious with ONE bathroom. We couldn't get any content on the TV. We ignored it because we were mostly outdoors. Internet was VERY slow and unstable. It was only available in the living room. Could only support one or two devices at a time. There was no cleaning service, including taking out the trash for the entire duration of the stay. Even though the ******* listing mentioned laundry facilities, we couldn't find them. No laundry within the apartment. If there was a laundromat in the building, we could not find it. Pillows were extremely thin and there were no extra pillows to compensate. Overall, this was a bare minimum experience. I am left with the impression that I should have picked a hotel instead of this apartment.

Once we gained access, we were satisfied with the accommodation. It is in a good location. about 20 minutes' walk from Sagrada Familia and close to metro stations. There are two bedrooms, a good bathroom and a fairly spacious sitting-cum-dining area with a small balcony. Also a kitchen area with fridge etc. The access problem was caused by a fierce machine in the hallway which demanded all sorts of quite unnecessary details before it would yield up a keycard. In the end, we had to ring an emergency number to obtain a temporary one.

Not recommended. The internet connection is literally non-existent, you can't even load a general web site, a simple search on google flights takes forever. Forget any work that you planned to do. I called the number provided for such purposes, listened to some nonsense about a router in a building, the essence of the response was "we won't do anything". It is a place run as cheaply as one can get away with. You communicate with a check-in machine and if anything goes wrong you are stuck waiting for someone to respond to you via an intercom machine on a wall who knows from where. If you are into these things - OK, but in all other cases stay in a place with some human interaction and an actually functioning Internet.

A wonderful apartment (Apt. 5.2) that was very clean and had a ton of room. I would stay there again. Check-in was a breeze.

Fabulous! It is a bit of a walk from las ramblas etc (approx 45 mins) but staff are great. We we’re concerned as a woman came in our room twice using a key looking for ‘Jordan’ so we locked the door from the inside and the young man on reception gave us a new Set of keys. The room is very clean, and fairly Modern. I would say that the beds are very hard so we did struggle sleeping on them. Kettle was in the room and a hairdryer too and a bottle of water. There’s a few shops and bakeries locally too. The Syrian restaurant approx 100 metres away I would highly recommend too. The food is fantastic and we Used them several times and brought the food back to the apartment. Taxi from the air port was €43 and returning early morning was €34 and we hailed One very quickly. I would stay here again!

Beautiful, very nice property. Great location, and walkable to public transportation, easily accessible, wifi is a huge problem in the building, makes it difficult to work remotely.

Disappointed that I was informed 11th hour of property unavailability which led me nearly without accommodation and ended up paying 4 times the normal price..

Sejour tres agréable il manquait quelle que ustensile de cuisine et des couverts. Mais sinon très bien situer 2 metro a proximité et pres de la sagrada.

All'arrivo il check-in, molto complicato, ciha dato una camera per 3 invece eravamo 4 persone. Dopo 3 giorni abbiamo trovato in camera una blatta. Volevamocambiarecamera, ma le strutture proposte erano lontane. Abbiamo pagato a nostre spese la sera in albergo vicino. Il giorno dopo ci hanno dato un'altra camera assecondo piano.
