Flateli Aribau

  : Great location, pleased to find a small elevator given we were on the third floor. Spacious, bright apartment, relatively comfortable beds, comply sofa, good size dining table, well equipped kitchen, clean. Close to local eateries and small convenience stores to buy provisions, close to bus stops and only a 510 minute walk away to nearest Metro station.
  : Bathroom basic and needed updating with a shower which left water all over the bathroom floor, sinks didnt drain. Kitchen sinks didnt have plug which made washing up difficult. Very poor soundproofing in the flat (not owners fault), so on the first night exposed to loud rap music until very late and next door neighbours phone call (in English) all about his holiday arrangements I could even tell where he was going and what time he was arriving but thankfully he left the next day so it was quiet after that. Not impressed by response from owner about Wi-Fi. Partner and two adult sons, well used to connecting to Wi-Fi, couldnt get it to work. I was told by the lad who checked us in to call if we have any problems and I did within 30 minutes of checking in. Response came several hours later telling me to turn on and off again which we had done. Contacted him again and had a message sent back to me on Sunday to say that it was a bank holiday so there would be no response and then I didnt hear anything again until 13:50 on the Tuesday, basically telling me to check the password on the modem. We were leaving the next day so that was annoying. Password wasnt the problem, just very poor/weak connection. TV box didnt work. Thankfully, we had brought a laptop with downloaded films, so were able to plug in with our own connections. If you have children, particularly teenagers, it might be worth bearing this issue in mind.

  : Great space for gathering with family. Kitchen was very well equipped.
  : 2 smaller bedrooms were a little stuffy - no a/c and no air movement.

  : Location
  : We were unable to use the balcony which was very disappointing as this is why we booked this apartment. The railings looked very unsafe so presume this is the reason why. We only found out as there was a message stuck to the window. There is still no plug so you cannot was dishes. There is an issue with the drainage so the shower overflows. Very disappointing,

  : Everything was great. We had reservation for flateli aribau but we were informed 3 days before arrival that we would have to stay at another flat about a kilometer away (flateli Paris) due to some humidity at the one we reserved. It was larger and better but slightly more far from city center. Though, we were fully satisfied with the communication of the staff and the whole behavior and flat comfort. Market right outside and convenient cafe for having breakfast.
