A cozy stay in Barcelona
The location was fantastic, with easy access to subway stations and just a short walk from main attractions. The staff was incredibly helpful, providing great tips and assistance. We even enjoyed the nearby food market, which was perfect for quick meals.
However, the room itself was smaller than expected, lacking space for luggage and comfort. A few issues arose with the bathroom amenities, and the service at times could feel overwhelming, especially during busy periods.

proximity to Sant Antoni metro station, nearby supermarkets, charming neighborhood with beautiful architecture
The towels are too small for anyone taller than 1.70m!!! Adding more garbage cans in rooms would be practical!!! The strange odors in the room were quite off-putting!!! A little more attention to cleanliness, please!!!

Those square hamburgers at the nearby El Rebost De Sant Antoni? Absolute game changers! Add to that a cozy community patio vibe and a pretty decent location for catching public transport.
The internet connection was a pain, only reachable from the staff who were MIA during off hours. Plus, we had no water for the first two days and a tricky door handle situation that was bypassed with a key. Still, we made the best of it!

great stay with a lovely balcony
The room was spacious enough, providing ample storage. I enjoyed the lovely city view from my room and appreciated the clean facilities. The location was very convenient as it allowed easy access to nearby attractions and public transport.
However, the patio was locked in the evening, limiting access to that space.

The check-in experience was pleasant, and the receptionist graciously offered helpful tips for local eateries and attractions. The location was an excellent base for exploring nearby highlights like Casa Batlló, but some plumbing noise was noticeable in the room. During the stay, having only one key for the apartment was somewhat inconvenient.

We loved exploring Barcelona with our dog, and the staff made sure we felt welcome. Every day, we strolled to nearby attractions, and their laundry service was a lifesaver with the kids' messes!
My wife says that the room could have been a bit bigger for our family.

I had a pleasant stay with a charming balcony in my room, but some loud elevator noises were a bit bothersome. I loved the cozy atmosphere and the nearby bakery for breakfast.
