Excellent location. The apartment was clean and in great shape. Great service, and well organized. We would definitely recommend, and will use Habitat again.
Perfect location for a family exploring Barcelona. Perfect sized apartment. Hosts couldn’t have been more helpful, from allowing us to drop bags in prior to check in, to calling and emailing to see if all is ok. Would highly recommend. And look forward to visiting again in future.

Nice apartment in a nice neighborhood
Very nice, comfortable apartment for our family of 5. Great neighborhood and central location in Barcelona. It was clean and well equipped for our stay. The communication with the staff was sub-par and primarily only occurred through the Vrbo app. The staff responded but it wasn’t always timely. That would be the only recommendation for improvement that I have. Otherwise it was great place and we enjoyed our time there.
Great comfortable accommodation in Eixample. Close to city central restaurants and attractions right outside your door. The apartment was very clean, spacious, had all the amenities we needed and was reasonably priced. We were 4 woman and had more than enough room in this spacious 3 bedroom and 2 bathroom space. Great full kitchen equipped with all the essentials. The bedrooms were spacious, quiet, comfy cozy and had all that was needed. Even the blow dryer in the second bathroom was awesome! Our experience was very positive and the listing reflects exactly what the apartment offered. Easy check in and check out and Habitat was very accommodating in providing instructions to manage everything in the apartment as well as hotel transfers. All in all a great experience and was very happy with our stay! Would recommend!
Thank you!
Listing was accurate and place was plenty large and well appointed. Good location a bit (10-15 min walk) from heart of Gothic quarter. Good access by taxi and good shops/restaurants nearby. Great stay!
Hard to beat the location. Walking distance to nearly everything. Reasonable sound proofing from busy street with windows closed. Felt safe. 3 mid-sized rooms with queen or full mattresses. Good wifi. I appreciate the property manager including basic items such as laundry detergent. AC and hot water heater worked great (not always the case in Spain).
Location, Location, Location.
We completely enjoyed or visit to Barcelona and the rental was fantastic. It had a great location with food, drink, transportation and other amenities close by. Definitely a place to revisit.
Property was renovated apartment in a very old, charming building. Plenty of space for us to spread out and plan our Barcelona fun. TV was not a "smart TV" but not a huge issue.

No help needed but your communication needs to be vastly improved. The unit was perfect, size, cleanliness, A/C, location but trying to contact you or your representative SUCKS!! We also heard that from another party renting another unit!!!
We enjoyed our stay immensely!! Lots of space for our family of 5. Clean apartment with airy and tasteful design. Balconies where you could let in some fresh air. Everything you need from an iron to hairdryers and washer/dryer. Close to several great bakeries and the metro got us everywhere we needed to go with just a 5 minute walk to the Diagonal station. Quiet neighborhood but easy walk to the Ramblas and also great shopping just a street or two away. Would definitely stay here again!

The photos don’t depict this apartment accurately- it is an old, worn building with moldy shower tile and walls that don’t block any noise. Beds are not comfortable though our young adults kids were ok with them. We basically got no sleep because someone in an apartment next door would start talking or turn on a TV at 2am until late morning. One night the flat was inundated with weed smoke in the early morning hours from a neighbor smoking. The washing machine had been left undrained with water in it that smelled like sewage. While the response from management was swift —after two nights of no sleep we moved to a hotel.
We loved the apartment and the amenities that were part of our stay. The location was perfect for us, as our son is studying in Barcelona for the next few months. We decided to visit him for ten days and explore the city. This apartment was very cute and the charm of the description and pics were what led us to book it. Accurate in every detail. Hot water did not work well...needs to be checked out.
Thanks for making our stay memorable.
location great, bakery/coffee right down stairs! Apartment sufficient but not enough linens for our stay. Washer broke but was fixed quickly. Same for internet. Communications with property management excellent both by email and phone. ordered extra towels but never received them is only thing I can say negatively about this apartment.
Stayed here in February with my wife and two teenage daughters. Apartment is nice size and adequately furnished. Couple of quirks - smoke detector connected to kitchen light switch and odd smell from the dishwasher. But, overall, it was great and the location was fantastic. Convenient walking distance to everything. Check in was difficult as we didn’t have contact info for owner when we showed up on Sunday, but we managed to connect and were in apartment within 15 min of showing up. Very nice person who checked us in. Grocery store was block and a half away. Would stay here again.
We loved this apartment. It is situated on top of the Provença metro station, so is wonderfully convenient. It is also amazingly quiet - despite being in a busy neighbourhood, the double glazing works wonders. We are a family of four with two kids and it was a great base for our Barcelona holiday.

The location could not be better. The property is shabby, the walls are very marked. The tiles are coming off the floor in several places. We had to replace the lightbulbs in the bathroom. The kitchen is poorly equipped. We have not received our property deposit back.
Location was perfect and apartment was very spacious for four of us!
Very easy check-in. Someone was waiting for us when we arrived and took us through all necessary information. Apartment was clean and exactly as pictured on the website! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
Great apartment - centrally located. Great natural light, windows and air from 2 floor. Not too loud at night. Good access to everything in surrounding neighborhoods and ways to get taxis right outside of apartment.. Safe building. Great WiFi.
Loved the washer/dryer for towels and clothes. We had 4 girls - hot water ran out quickly and we had to wait for boiler to refill again for shower after 1 hour. US-based hairdryer blew out electricity (would recommend using European hair dryers only). Definitely ask for additional towels (they only give 1 per person, we had to pay for extra towels).
Emergency phone # and responses were answered very quickly when we blew electricity.
Would have liked a few blankets for the couch and beds. The bed duvet covers smelled of strong bleach odor.
Wish there was a smart TV that had Netflix.
We were here during the coronavirus outbreak and had to leave promptly midweek to get back to the US when Trump banned travel to Europe. We will be back to see the rest of the city!
We love what we saw in Barcelona and otherwise great apartment and would definitely recommend.
Thank you + world health and peace for all
