Gemma’s apartment had a great central location that was perfect for our group of 12s stay in Barcelona.
The apartment was as described in the photos, though one of the rooms with one double bed and two sofa beds did feel quite squashed with the amount of people, so this apartment may be more suited to a smaller group.
Gemma was very communicative and responsive before and throughout our stay, and was a great host. My only negative comment would be that a few months after we made the booking, it was mentioned that noise sensors had been fitted in the apartment, that had a certain decibel limit and were monitored by the agency who could potentially contact the police if we were too loud, so we had to be very quiet not only at night but during the day as well.
For a group of 12 this was quite inconvenient as we were not sure what the limit actually was, and were conscious of having more than one conversation going on in each room. If this had been advertised on the listing initially then we may have booked elsewhere because of the size of our group. There was no issue with noise levels in the end but I think it would’ve been better to be made aware of this before we booked so that we could decide how we felt about this.
Overall we had a good stay!
