The location is great. The trouble was NO HEAT. There were 2 small electric heaters that we had on all night. We did not want to leave them when we weren't there. The bathroom and kitchen were never warm. We stayed in January so the cold really effected us. There was some noise from the restaurant below but because we didn't have the windows opened it did not affect us. The place was very clean and in the center of town.

The property was as described with the promised supplies and devices. Although a small initial hiccup, the property owner resolved quickly and in an excellent fashion. That told us we had made the right decision in selecting this property. There were recommendations for dining provided that were spot on. There was also a cafe (Chula Vista) right outside the front door that had both good food and great staff.

Nice location but loud

Unfortunately, the guest staying before us smoked in the apartment so it smelled of cigarette smoke. Opening the windows helped but that also let in the noise. With the windows closed the noise is OK. It’s a great location.

The apartment is clean and as described in the pictures. It is in a location that is easily walkable to most of the big touristic sites. Our only complaint is that it is very noisy at night from the bar directly below and the neighbourhood itself. Property manager was kind.

As advertised— and that’s good!

We were very pleased to see that the property looked as expected and has a lot of character. It was well equipped and Victor’s colleague Marc was responsive by phone and messages, even if not showing up as expected when issues arose. None of those issues were serious. We really liked the neighborhood and the view from the windows. The A/C worked well and closing the windows blocked the street noise effectively. We experienced one serious safety issue on our last night. A family member closed an interior door without knowing that the door didn’t have a handle on the inside. My husband and I were locked in with no means of escape if such were necessary and we couldn’t get to the bathroom either. I’m sure they will get that fixed. All in all, we would recommend this place to others.

Definitely bright apartment, lots of light and windows. Neighborhood a little sketchy at night, but the Euro cup was happening and people were celebrating. The washer was a blessing and the place had all the amenities of home. Conveniently located to many shops and apartment sits above an awesome little restaurant that serves the best tacos ever! Marc was very accessible. We locked ourselves out late at night and he responded right away and got us back into the apartment. Would definitely stay again. We enjoyed our stay and felt welcomed by the culture.

Neuve noches en El Raval

The stay was quite pleasurable. Many sights of interest were within walking distance, along with very good tapas and galician restaurants. There were many supermercats and other services in the area. The neighbourhood, however, looked a little sketchy for Old Barcelona, but we had no issues - it's a major city, with all that goes with that.

Clean linens did not arrive until night before we left…. 5 days. Would not recommend this until it was fumigated. Victor has not responded dealing with this issue. We would like half of our payment to be refunded.

Excellent Location

Apartment is an amazing location and very nicely decorated. There is lots of space and the building itself was secure and quiet. Also, great to have a clothes washer! Be prepared for noise from the street (ear plugs are necessary). The check in process was confusing as we never received instructions and had to contact them. The bathroom had clearly been used just prior to our arrival :( and the kitchen needs a good cleaning.

Bohemian Rhapsody

El Raval is the hipster neighborhood of Barcelona, replete with graffiti, thrift shops, tattoo parlors all around. The flat is located on the third floor above a sceney bar/restaurant called Fat Schmucks. We chose the location because it is very near the famed La Boqueria market and we were eager to sample food from a variety of stalls. The apartment is pretty much 'as photographed' and functions very well. Flor, the property manager, met us outside and toured us through the ins and outs of the apartment. She followed up and sent us some recommendations of museums and restaurants. Thank you Flor! The main living room/dining room/bedroom was comfortable and had lots of windows. The A/C was very efficient. The washer/dryer was a big plus, as we were on a three week trip through Spain. I might recommend that the owners replace the bed and the linens with more luxe appointments, as this would go a long way to giving the apartment a 4/5 star hotel feel. All in all, we enjoyed our stay in the apartment and in this colorful neighborhood of Barcelona. To be fair, we were probably on the older side of people who choose this location.

Great apartment in a colorful neighborhood!

This apartment is just as described! Very clean and comfortable. Lots of attention to detail. The air conditioner was nice for the hot days. However, it does leak, and we needed to make sure there were towels underneath so it didn't ruin the floors. Also, the drip was somewhat noisy. Lots of restaurants nearby and close to the metro and all the touristy areas of Barcelona. We would definitely stay there again!

Delightful place to stay

Can't say enough about this darling property. Flor was in contact with us days before our arrival reaching out before, during and after. This attention to client was much appreciated. We had no issues but just knowing she was a call or text away was comforting. As for the apartment, you can't go wrong booking this location. It was perfect for two. We have been to Barcelona several times, staying in the Gotic area. I must say I enjoyed the Ravel neighborhood just as much. Then again, any area in the Old City is interesting. Close to the metro (Liceu was the stop we used the most), La Ramble, Boqueria Market, the Marina, it's all within walking distance this apartment is the place to stay. If you like to walk, get a City map from one of the tourist information centers, (just look for the red sign with the white capital I). As for amenities, the shower was amazing, hot water, perfect water pressure, the best we've had yet in our travels in Europe. Great blow dryer, don't bring one, the one supplied was 2200 watts of power, no cheap hotel blow dryer here. Nice size refrigerator, washer, no dryer but there is a drying rack that worked nicely. Not a standard coffee pot, but a "Nespresso" machine. Flor supplied the pods for it. Also, a electric hot water kettle, nice for tea. Full kitchen supplies should you decide to cook a few meals in home. The TV worked fine, internet was top speed. Comfortable bed, with extra pillow, and blankets in the cupboard. You will love the lighting the apartment has, open the windows and french doors and let the Barcelona air flow. Some evenings, especially Friday and Saturday nights folks are enjoying the late nights, no worries though, the A/C works great and once the windows are shut, virtually no ambient sound. To sum up, book this apartment, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy Barcelona, knowing you have a lovely place to return to at the end of the day.

Authentic Barcelona Experience in the Raval neighborhood

If you want an authentic experience in Barcelona this apartment is perfect. If you want to be with all the other tourists then Las Ramblas is a ten minute walk away. Everything about the apartment in the description was spot on. We were met at the apartment upon our arrival by Flor and shown how to operate everything. The only thing that she couldn't get to work was the TV. We didn't care as we weren't going to watch it anyways. There are so many bars and resturants walking three blocks in any direction, that the choices were overwhelming, including a vegetarian resturant on the ground floor. We walked to the La Boqueria one morning and brought back prepared food to warm up for dinner. It is noisy at nite on the street below, but we shut the windows, turned on the fan as white noise, and had no trouble sleeping through the nite.

Lovely property in the heart of El Raval.

Very clean and efficient. The lift to the apartment, four floors up, is a bonus. Flor manages the property with incredible attention. For all the street noise, once the windows are closed, it is very quiet inside. Heat in the colder months is quite adequate. It is appreciated that the owners and managers are environmentally aware and encourage their guests to be the same.
