As the other reviews the check in process is easy and the apartment is conveniently located near the hotel. We arrive 45 mins before check in and could not be accommodated but were offered to have our bags stored and to enjoy the pool if we wanted to. We chose to explore around the corner for a food and drinks which was easy to do.
Directions to the apartment from the hotel are easy to follow with a two minute walk and the elevator worked fine. Although there are some interesting letters posted by it that are written to guests by people who live in the building, reminding them that not everyone is on holiday. The walls are paper thin, so it is understandable that neighbours hear everything. As it works both ways.
The beds are incredible (!!) best sleeps, and the bathrooms are well equipped with nice smelling products. The kitchen has the necessities for a short stay. It’s a generally quiet neighbourhood (at least for our stay) with beautiful views of terraces and surrounding buildings through both balconies.
The location is excellent. It was so easy to find the subway, or bars/food, or go for walks. The only small consideration is that we noticed a bit of a sewer smell from the drains in the bathroom on day 2. It was not enough to bring up as an issue, but certainly kept the door closed.
The subway station is very easy to navigate, but we also recommend the Hop on and Off to get acquainted with the city. We loved Barcelona and were sad to leave. Will be back!
