Brillante, elegante, Town Center. Ascensor. Tranquilo. 7 Windows. Compromiso Verde.

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.

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.

The apartment is centrally located just off Las Rambas and shopping and restaurants a just minutes away. The neighborhood, while centrally located and has plenty of stores for you to get your provisions and delicious places to eat, is a bit dodgy - think "Times Square". We found that the vibrant neighborhood made it sometimes challenging to sleep until after the bars and businesses closed even with the use of the earplugs Delta provided. The mattress is comfortable and there are plenty of blankets to keep you warm although a pillow upgrade is needed. The kitchen (they started us with a few espresso pods and Cava for the New Year) has every thing you will need for your stay and there are some condiments. US travelers might have a time figuring out the cook top and the clothes washer can also be tricky (choose "Breve" cycle and cold wash for quickest cycle) . There is no dryer for clothes- only drying racks or clothes line outside. The bathroom has plenty of storage for toiletries and a good blow dryer for the ladies and a magnifying mirror! The drain in the shower is very slow and pools up at your feet and you will run out of hot water if you have three people showering in succession. There were some leak issues during our stay that were being addressed and the owner was attentive. Fresh paint would make the place shine more but that won't make your stay any better or worse. There is good storage so bring plenty of comfy shoes because you will walk a lot. No USB ports so be sure to bring your chargers. Flor is a delight and pay close attention when she shows you how to open the door!

Wonderful place to stay!!! The apartment is in a GREAT location - a real, vibrant, living neighborhood where one gets to experience the true feeling of the City, just outside of the tourist chaos (and expense) while also being VERY centrally located - easy, short, lovely walks to just about everything the City has to offer. Shops for all your needs within a block or two of the apartment and prices are very reasonable. The bakery/cafe kitty corner is super.

One could not find a better host than Victor Bello. Excellent communication from initial booking to departure day. He made our trip so much easier and more enjoyable by assisting with tourist information before and at arrival, as well as help with out airport transportation. Victor greeted us promptly upon arrival and patiently made sure we were are settled in and had our bearings. It was such a delight that he had a bottle of wine, chocolate, and coffee on the counter, as well as basic essentials in the kitchen, laundry and bath. We could now just relax and enjoy our home away from home after a very long day of travel. A stellar apartment with a most excellent host.
