I had done a lot of research before choosing this apartment. Location, general neighborhood, feel for then city, amenities, etc. but I really wasn't prepared for just how enveloped you are in the city, like a local, immediately. The apartment is beautiful. Light, open, perfectly spacious. The location is honestly perfect for well, everything; the Cituat Vella, Las Ramblas, the metro to pop over to wherever in 10 minutes, Universitat de Barcelona, funky cool shops, museums, great food (although really look at hours), grocery stores where food is super inexpensive. Truly everything is within walking distance. Andreas and Claudia were fantastic. My phone wasn't working, except for texting, so I had to email them in the airport that I had arrived.... No problem. They were there. If you want to stay in Barcelona and really get the feel for this beautiful city, this is where you need to stay. Hands down, I will come back again.
This top floor apartment ( hardly what I would call a penthouse) looks more spacious because of the nice rooftop terrace which, in good weather, is a great place to hang out and eat meals. But if itâs not pleasant weather you are stuck in the small living room. The seating in the living room consists of two daybeds, and one small metal chair. Not very comfortable for 4 persons, let alone six. Supplies - like dishes, towels, and drinking glasses - were the bare minimum of one per person. The daily housecleaning sounded nice but there was an additional charge if you wanted fresh towels. And there is no service on Sunday. Since we arrived on Saturday and left on Tuesday morning we basically didnât get any cleaning service. The laundry was in the basement and the dryer didnât dry the clothes even after four cycles. The location was convenient and there was a SMALL elevator to get up there. Two ( maybe three) people only or one person and a suitcase. There was a flight of stairs to get to the elevator from street level, so not good for anyone who canât climb stairs.
We had a great stay. The apartment was comfortable and clean. The terrace was very nice. The neighborhood was very lively. Lots of shopping and dining options all around. Really enjoyed walking around every day and night. Staff was easy to work with.
I really liked the En Ville apartment`s location, it`s in between the Ramblas and the Eixample Area. I hardly had to use the metro, most places were within walking distance. We had the 4 bedrooms apartment, it was on 2nd floor and I really liked the retro style furniture. Everything was quite clean. There were also 3 bathrooms. The street in front of the apartment building is quite noisy at night, but the apartment had very good windows, which kept the noise out. Just in one bedroom you could hear noises of the other building and also the air ventilationâŠ
I also think, that you really get value for money at this place, compared to other holiday apartments in Barcelona. Andreas was very friendly and helpful. The only thing I didn`t like was, that I couldn`t open the windows in the 3 bedrooms facing the backyardâŠand there is not much natural light.But maybe in Spanish summer heat, this is an advantage :-). Apart from that, it would be great if they had more kitchen tools (e.g. a cutting board, wooden spoonâŠ) it`s not really sufficient for serious cooking.

Ideal apartment for a city break.
Great character property, only 5/10 minutes walk from The Rambles. We were a party of 2 adults and 3 teenagers and found the apartment plenty big enough. The added bonus of the outside space was ideal for breakfast in the sun and chilling at the end of the day with a nice glass of wine.
The kitchen was clean and well equipped. A good shower in the bathroom.
Andreas was very helpful and only a phone call away should we have needed anything. Also where able to store our luggage on the last day so we could make the most of our time before a late flight home.
As this was our first visit to Barcelona we couldn't have asked for better, we will be back.
We were greeted by a most genial host - Andreas - who spoke excellent English. He gave us his mobile number to get in touch should we have any issues which provided peace of mind during our stay. The apartment was clean and well located. There are plenty of restaurants and bakeries nearby. We would certainly recommend the property to friends.

Superbeliggenhed og fantastisk tagterrasse
Dejlig rummelig og ren lejlighed med tagterasse i hyggeligt, roligt og Êldre kvarter. Supercentral beliggenhed og helt perfekt til 5 kvinder der skulle opleve Barcelona. hyggelig lille lokal og farverig gade udenfor hoveddÞren med det spÊndende Bouquera marked nÊsten for enden af gaden, masser af smÄ sjove butikker lige rundt det fÞrste hjÞrne. rundt det andet hjÞrne er den store Plaza Catalunia og Ramblaen med god shopping og et hjÞrne mere sÄ stÄr man i den endnu Êldre bydel hvor der er endnu flere spÊndende ting at suge til sig. Lejligheden er velfungerende med gode senge og en helt fantastisk uundvÊrlig tagterrasse. Meget belejligt ligger der forskellige smÄ bagerbutikker i gaden hvor man kan hente frisk morgenbrÞd til at indtage pÄ den dejlige tagterrasse og rigtig belejligt kan det ogsÄ vÊre at der er elevator til nÄr kufferterne er for tunge eller benene for trÊtte. Og nÄr man er mÊttet af dagens indtryk er tagterrassen fantastisk til hygge derhjemme. Endelig rigtig fin service i form af gode tips til hyggelige steder i byen og fleksibilitet i forbindelse med sen afrejse.
Vi kommer igen lige straks....

Superbeliggenhed og fantastisk tagterrasse
Super beliggenhed og helt fantastisk tagterrasse. Det kunne ikke vÊre mere centralt for fem kvinder der skulle opleve Barcelona. Dejlig ejendom i hyggeligt Êldre, roligt og charmerende kvarter. Det spÊndende Bouquera marked nÊrmest for enden af gaden, mange smÄ spÊndende butikker, den store catalunya plads og Ramblaen og masser af store fine butikker rundt hjÞrnet den endnu Êldre bydel rundt et hjÞrne mere og meget mere inden for rÊkkevidde. OgsÄ god lille bager sÄ man kunne hente frisk brÞd til morgenmaden som selvfÞlgelig skal nydes pÄ tagterrassen. Super rar, ren og velfungerende lejlighed med gode senge, elevator til de trÊtte ben sidst pÄ dagen og igen mÄ fremhÊves den dejlige tagterrasse, den er slet ikke til at undvÊre til hygge om aftenen.

Barcelona's Perfect Location
We were a party of 8 ( 4 adults & 4 kids...6yo, 8yo, 10yo & 13yo) and we stayed here for 7 days. The appartment is brand new, great rooms, small kitchen, big screen TV, WiFi ( worked sometimes), three bathrooms .The kitchen had very limited utensils, but had a washer/dryer, small frig and small freezer. Apartment looks exactly like the pictures posted. The apartment was clean upon our arrival and Andreas was there to greet us.
Location, location was GREAT. It was a market across the alley way and several more all around. Little to no traffic in the alley. Ten minutes walking distance from Las Ramblas and around the corner from Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art (MACBA). At night it was a little noisy in the alley way, but only if you are in the front bedroom, so bring ear plugs it you are a light sleeper. Lots of shops and restaurants enroute to Las Ramblas.
The best part about this rental is Andreas. He is extremely professional and efficient not to mention friendly, caring and responsive. He even agreed to open a Paypal account, since that was the way that we wanted to pay the deposit.
This was our first time to Barcelona and renting an apartment and if we return, we will stay here again. Thanks Andreas.
This block of apartments have a great Spanish feel to them, with high cielings and a thoughtful design. We rented a few of the apartments in the building and the top apartment, has three bedrooms and a great terrace with outdoor living area and dining table. We had some problems with the WiFi but as the apartment has only just been renovated and everything is brand new it was understandable and Andreas could not have been more welcoming, patient and hospitable.
Looking forward to going back next year.
