  : Excellent host, great communication and very smooth check-in and check-out. The apartment was perfectly suited to our needs, and we loved the roof terrace dining area. Great location in a neighbourhood with loads of nice bars, restaurants and shops.
  : It was a bit noisy at night, but that is the price you will always pay to stay in a neighbourhood with great bars and restaurants.

  : Although we were given the wrong door code and couldn't get in, a call to booking.com to contact the owner eventually sorted it out. Not something you wanted when arriving tired after a long journey. Sergi was very helpful and compensated us with a free taxi to the airport for the mix up, which was greatly appreciated especially as my daughter is disabled. Very central location, near metro and walking distance of restaurants and cafes.
  : Needed more mugs, at least six, there were four of us and only 3 mugs, one chipped. Chipped bowls too. No small knife for food prep or bread knife, just three huge ones. (This was mentioned in a review in 2021, but not supplied by Sept 22) Light by front door not working. Mirror in bedroom could be useful. Pillows could do with renewing, and perhaps a duvet for cooler months. Chairs very hard and uncomfortable, cushions would be nice in kitchen and on terrace. Maybe a few inexpensive pictures on the walls would give it a more warm feeling, all seemed a bit bare and cold. Not suitable accomodation for elderly people or people with mobility issues as it is arranged over three floors, four if you include terrace, so a lot of running up and down stairs. I run my own B&B in England, listening to customers comments and acting on them go a long way to obtaining that perfect score.

  : Central Location, relatively quiet, host was responsive and did his best to remedy the issues we found (which changed my rating from a 5 to a 6). Was a great size for 5 adults. Nice fridge and beds were comfortable.
  : For the price I expected better quality. In this particular unit (#C), there was a lot of mildew in the showers, the washing machine soap tray was dirty, the laundry hamper had mildew, there was no place to hang wet towels or keep soap in the shower, bad smells and sounds coming from kitchen plumbing and flies, lots of stains on the sofa (host had the sofa cover replaced during our stay which was appreciated), shutter door to patio was very hard to slide and there was a broken door in the floor of the deck which was hazardous. Host said he would remedy items which is good, but based on the ratings I would expect this to be part of the normal cleaning process.

  : Perfect location, walking distance to many points of interest and nice restaurants, very spacious, well equipped with everything you might possibly need, nice rooftop terrace.
  : The area can get a bit noisy at night, the air conditioning system is not very straightforward to operate and it took us a while to warm the place up (the host is very helpful and quick to respond though, and after some further instructions it all worked out fine).

  : Perfect accommodation if you go with group of 5-6 people (3 couples). Fully equipped house, almost in the centre of Barcelona - majority on walking distance, also very close to metro station. Very good communication with owner. Great terrace on the roof.
  : You need to be ready that the place is quite nosiy - but it is expectable considering the location.
