The room has 4 meters high ceilings with wooden beams and the architect didn't accept to have a 'toilet' inside the room (we tried to convince him, but he said that we would definitely ruin the sense of the room).

Great experiance in Barcelona

Excellent location and very well done decor. All the amenities and more were available in this beautiful resrtored flat. I was traveling alone and always felt very safe and loved the easy access to the old city.
Victor and his family went out of there way to make me feel at home and provided me with so much information they could open there own travel service. I manage a luxury boutique hotel and I would rate both the property and service five stars.

Perfectly located

5 of 5
Submitted: May 7, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
This pleasant apartment is perfectly located for an exploration of Barcelona. It is located on the edge of the Gothic Quarter, Many of the places that any visitor would seek to visit are within easy walking distance. It is only a 10 minute walk to Metro lines. Restaurants are close by. In 8 nights, we took a cab only to one and walked to the rest. The owner, Victor, and his father, Miguel, are wonderful. We took a tour with Miguel, which lasted three hours and covered many of the important sites, to which we later returned. Miguel has an encyclopedic memory and is very charming, to boot. We were very satisfied.

Very Pleased with Apartment # 227077

5 of 5
Submitted: November 6, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
A highlight of our trip to Barcelona was Apartment #227077 and the great personal attention the owners provided. We were newcomers to the great city of Barcelona and had no idea that the location of this very comfortable flat was perfect for our interests—and provided plenty of space for two couples to live comfortably for a week. Within a five to ten minute walk were: Plau de la Musica Catalana (we saw amazing flamenco dancing), La Rambla and the Mercat de La Boqueria, the Barcelona Cathedral and a wonderful weekend market in the square, the Roman ruins maintained in Museu d’Historica de Barcelona, and the bus stop for the two tours of the city from which we could jump on-and-off for museums and restaurants we wanted to visit. Realtors tout “location, location, location” as the critical considerations in their business. We found that phrase true for our visit as each day it was pleasant to return to #227077 to relax a bit over wine and cheese before departing to one of the excellent restaurants the owners had recommended.
