This apartment is an absolute gem. We can’t rate it highly enough. The superb reviews that have gone before ours helped us to make our mind up and I hope this will help others to decide.
Violeta is an attentive host who answers messages quickly and looked after us well. Check-in was easy and quick after a simple taxi ride from the airport.
The apartment felt private and is in a smart, quiet block. The beds (inc sofa bed) were very comfortable, with crisp linen. The shower was powerful and the bathroom modern. It all felt spacious and spotless. It was also great to have a washing machine & dryer - and Netflix for those quiet nights in!
It was our first time in Barcalona and the area of El Poble Nou was perfect for us & our two boys (15 & 12). With plenty of shops and restaurants on our doorstep - along with a whole shopping centre (including large Carrefour 8 mins walk away), we couldn’t have wished for more. We felt completely safe and welcome.
The beautiful beach was about 15 mins walk. We did this every day but also caught the metro at Poble Nou into the city. We used a T10 ticket which was very easy. The apartment is extremely well connected to all areas of the city.
Highlights of our 5 night break were: a ride on the Telefonic cable car, Sagrada Família, Gothic Quarter & days on the beach. We also loved hiring E-scooters (BCN Classic Bikes, just off Rambla de Poble Nou). This place also has luggage storage - we paid €5 for the day - must book online. Saved us pulling our case around on our last day.
We will be back! 😍
