City Center-Ramblas Apartment

Tidy & newly renovated apartment in the Gothic Quarter with an elevator (huge plus). The owner must be new at this as he didn't put much thought into guest comfort. Check in was haphazard with different parties involved then not involved. Took 2 hours to get in. No TV, just a ceiling prjector that you need to run from your phone that we could not get to work. No music, just a vintage stereo system that didn't work. No clock. No dresser in the bedroom. No suitcase stands. No microwave. No napkins. Very little kitchen stuff like condiments, etc. Bathroom sink is 45" high.Only one lamp in the bedroom till we complained. Only two towels for a 10 day stay till we complained. Shower door leaks water all over bathroom floor. Shower temp changes while you're using it. Owner was supposed to come talk to us about all this but never showed. All in all very dissapointed for the price charged as the owner didn't plan things from a guests perspective.

The location was great for attending the America’s Cup. The apartment had some problems. The hot water would turn to cold during a shower and then come back. The apt had an odor and the picture made it look better than it was. The neighborhood was sketchy and the building run down. WiFi went off.

We were quite happy with the property it's central location and upkeep. Quite pleased with the property Manager Julio. Even though we met him only once, he did a very good job of explaining all ameneties. We didn't have any need to contact him until the day we vacated to say good bye. Interestingly the sink in the bathroom was so high it's very hard for average human beings (5' 6" and below) to use it comfortably. We wondered about its design. Also the noise level was quite high from adjacent buildings overnight from latenight party'ers. Overall we were quite satisfied with our stay.

This is a larger condo than most you find in the Gothic quarter area. Pluses - great location near plaza real and easy walk to La Ramblas, nice large comfy bed, large living area, decent kitchen, great manager Julio who was very responsive. Minuses- no microwave, lots of party noises outside every night, TV relies on casting from your device which was slow and unreliable. If those things were fixed it would get five stars.

The apartment is in a very central location - right off the Rambla close to the Plaza Real - walking distance to everything. Because it is on the top floor, noise at night was not an issue, especially with windows closed. Very clean and all the amenities you need. I would defnitely come back.
