Art Nouveau Barcelona Apartment, on Valencia St.

Description of the apartment -
· Beautiful and bright 2 bedroom apartment on the top (6th) floor of an 100-year-old modernist building, renovated outside and inside. The apartment still has the original ceilings with artistic moldings, mosaic floors (a different design in every room), and original woodwork on the doors and windows. There is an elevator, air conditioning (one air conditioning machine in each bedroom and one in the living room, total 3 machines), central heating, and a full kitchen with granite countertop, pots & pans, dishes, etc. One full bathroom with shower, toilet, sink. The living room has a dining table and chairs, a sofa.

The building's roof terrace is just upstairs from the apartment, with tables and chairs, plenty of sunshine, and views to Sagrada Familia. Please note it is a shared terrace.

Description of location -
· The apartment is located in the beautiful Eixample, halfway between Gaudi's La Pedrera (also known as Casa Milà) on the Passeig de Gracia, and Gaudi's La Sagrada Familia, just a ten-minute walk from either one. Casa Amatller and Casa Batlló are at the same short distance as well. The Eixample district has the most beautiful Art Nouveau architecture in the city dating from the last half of the XIX century.
There are many cafes, restaurants, tapas bars, and shops in the neighborhood also. Almost all buildings in the area are at least 100 years old. The 115-year-old Market of La Concepció, where you can do your grocery shopping in a traditional setting, is just 200 meters from the apartment. This market has fresh meat, produce, and cheeses, similar to the more famous Boqueria market, but less crowded and does not have some of the more exotic things.
The Eixample is recommended as a convenient location to see the different sight around the city, but not as crowded as the Old City. You can get a taste of real local life.

Transportation -
· There is a bus stop (for 8 different bus lines) on the corner right by the apartment that will take you to almost all the places of interest in the city, if you don't feel like walking. The city buses are nice and modern, and run often. The apartment is also less than 5 minutes walking from the metro station of Verdaguer, on both the yellow and blue lines. One stop away is the upscale shopping street, Passeig de Gracia, though you can easily walk there from the apartment. Three stops away is Plaza Catalunya (the very center of the city and also walkable) and the start of Las Ramblas, and the beaches are just five stops away. Four stops away you have the Old Cathedral and the Picasso Museum. There is also a parking garage close to the apartment, although renting a car in Barcelona is not recommended.

About the management -
· We are a small family company. Lauren is from Dallas, TX and Fernando is from Barcelona, Spain. We currently run 25 holiday apartments in Barcelona, 2 in Istanbul, Turkey, and 6 apartments in Krakow, Poland. We apply our same high standards in every country.

Not upto other VRBO that I have stayed at
No essentials. So I got spoiled by top notch Hosts. There has always been coffee, creamer, basics. Some even had wine , cheese. Not this place. There was plenty of room which is nice. I think the black mold in the shower and no cleaning products was a huge NObig NO for me.big disturbing.

The apartment is in a beautiful old building in a lovely area with excellent amenities and very close to bus stops and metro stations. It was spotless on arrival and instructions were easy to follow. The living rooms and bedrooms are really good size with lots of wardrobe space and plenty of hangers. Bathroom and kitchen are tiny but fully equipped with everything you might need. The apartment has all the original wooden windows and shutters and although these look gorgeous and really keep the light out, they do nothing to reduce noise from outside. The apartment is on a VERY busy junction and the traffic would wake us up through the night or very early in the morning. Unfortunately we also had some idiots shouting all over the street for 2 nights of are stay (8 night stay) which kept us awake too. I would definitely recommend taking earplugs! The rooftop terrace is great but shuts at 8 or 9pm which is a shame as it would have been nice to sit up there and have a drink at sunset. Should maybe stay open later in the summer. The area and proximity to all the sights is the best thing about the apartment and I’d probably book again for this reason (but take earplugs this time!). Beds comfy, pillow’s awful! Unbelievable city! Can’t wait to return.

Barcelona Diamond in the Rough
This apartment could be a perfect place, location wise, for visitors to Barcelona, but falls way off the mark. The owners do not live in Spain and supposedly have a man named Eduardo as part of the management. Although we were to meet Eduardo on our arrival, the "phantom" Eduardo was never seen. We were left to try to figure out which apartment we had paid for and to figure out how to enter the apartment. We are seasoned travelers and have never experienced something like this before. We were able to figure this out and and after many calls and texts to the number given us, Eduardo texted us to apologize after more than an hour. No one was going to help us with learning about the apartment until we insisted. A cleaning lady named Olga, finally came and we pointed out the many problems we noticed right away. The toilet ran nonstop, the washing machine was not working properly, many lightbulbs were out and there were no manuals on how to use the tv, etc. In the shower, the holder for the handheld shower was broken, which made showering similar to using a garden hose. Olga said she would pass these concerns on to Eduardo. The next day, Krystle appeared and the same problems were shown to her. The shower was fixed and one lightbulb was replaced during our stay. After contacting the owners, Lauren and Fernando, we were given a refund of $85 which seemed inadequate for all the inconveniences. Nothing else was ever fixed and the tv remained unusable. The internet works sporadically, so working from the apartment, might be difficult. After reading other reviews, we found the issue with the toilet had been going on for 5 months. The pictures of the apartment are very misleading and not what you will encounter if you rent this apartment. The towels should be thrown away and for 3 people, only three towels were given to us for our entire week's stay. The apartment needs a thorough cleaning and all rooms need to be painted. We did like the vintage aspects of the apartment (original floors, beamed ceiling) and the location was great to visit many of the sites one would want to see in Barcelona. We truly hope the owners will upgrade the apartment to its potential so that future renters will not be as disappointed and let down as we were.

Quite a few small issues that made our stay less than satisfying. Broken shower head ; noisy toilet.
If the location had not been so close to the sites I wanted to visit, I would have been even unhappier. No one greeted us the next day as promised even though we were told someone would so we could not figure out how to use the washer, etc. The shower head was broken so showering was akin to using a hose. The toilet was very noisy and kept me awake even with the door closed. The bathroom was very tiny with extremely worn and stained towels. The beds were ok but the twin beds only had a duvet which served as the only sheet and did not cover the body entirely.. Cleanliness was an issue. Not horrible, but definitely not acceptable to me. The location was fantastic and I loved the neighborhood. This would be an excellent rental with some minor improvements.

Location was fantastic
The apartment was in a great location. We loved the roof top patio and beautiful tile floors. The bathroom was very small and the shower was difficult to use because the hand held shower head was not mounted on the wall. Due to arriving around 2100 we did not get a orientation to the apartment and had difficulty with the door. Someone did come in a timely manner the next day after we contacted them. We would stay there again.

Misleading photos of a very basic and unclean apartment
Stayed at this property for 7 nights in June with my husband and best friend, booked it based on the photos advertised and the reviews. We paid same as we would in a 4 star hotel and didn't get any of the benefits we were hoping for . The apartment is very dirty and not maintained , towels are stained rags and the kitchen amenities are old and dirty as well ,so you can't really use them , other than the washer dryer machine . The washroom is a joke and yes I know this is Europe and rooms are smaller , I was born and lived in Europe for 24 years and still travel every year but this has to be the worst washroom ever. The toilet is leaking non stop ,we asked for it to be fixed, and we were told this is normal for Spanish toilets ?! It is not as this is not my first time in Spain. The property comes with free internet, that would be great if it actually worked , and it didn't so we had to rely on the internet from the the creperie place down stairs . It also stated one time maintenance and cleaning during our stay , that didn't happen as well. You can't enjoy the rooftop terrace as it is scorching hot, and no shade anywhere, also no-one is maintaining it as well. The only positive thing is the location of the property, very close to the main attractions in Barcelona some are walking distance ,some are short cab ride. We loved Barcelona and we'll be back again but not at this property. I would understand the experience if it was cheap to stay there so the expectations are low , but like I said we paid same ,if not more than a hotel ,and didn't get to enjoy. Suggestion to the management or the owner, this place can be What you advertise it to be, if you only maintain it and clean it properly. Dust everywhere filthy walls and floors makes for an uncomfortable stay in your place .

A Good Stay
A charming apartment very close to the Metro system and within walking distance of the Sagrada Familia. The place was clean and met all our needs - very comfortable. It was also close to some good restaurants and cafes. Unfortunately, it was quite noisy at night - traffic, people at nearby cafes, rooftop noise. But overall, I would recommend it.

Really enjoyed our time here. The apartment is perfect for a city stay: in the heart of it all and close to many of the most popular attractions. Beds are comfy and the roof terrace is lovely. Prompt communications from lovely hosts too. Totally recommended for an authentic stay in Barcelona.

A nice place to stay
The furnishings are simple but quite adequate. Although on the fourth floor, there is some traffic noise. The lighting isn't sufficient for reading at night. But overall, I would recommend it. Convenient to La Sagrada Familia and to the metro system.

Great location. Smaller than expected.
We enjoyed our week's stay. We had some initial bumps (electronic locks, wifi), but they were solved quickly. The bathroom is very small by US standards, but not by European, or historical urban standards. It's larger than a cruise ship bathroom, but tight. We were glad we took the owner's suggestion to bring house shoes for comfort on the mosaic floors. The AC units worked well. The location is great, near a number of bus and subway lines. Armed with Google Maps, we could easily return on the bus from almost anywhere in the city, and usually without transfers.

Great apartment and a great location.
Great apartment in a great neighborhood. Staff was very helpful with advice and great to deal with. We had no problems checking in and meeting up with Eduardo (Apartment rep). Apartment was as pictured and we loved the rooftop terrace. Bath and Kitchen are Euro and small but met all our needs. WE WILL stay here again!!! I highly recommend the Negre Apartment for your home base in Barcelona!!

Quelques jours à Barcelone
Nous avons séjourné 5 jours dans cet appartement situé dans le quartier de Eixample. Ce quartier présente de nombreux avantages, bien situé proche du centre mais suffisamment éloigné pour ne pas être gêné par le bruit. Par ailleurs, nous avons trouvé à proximité commerces et marché ainsi que deux lignes de métro, ce qui était très pratique. Quand à l'appartement, il est clair et fonctionnel.

schöne Wohnung für einen Barcelona Trip
Tolle, zentrale Lage, fast alles ist fußläufig zu erreichen. Sauber und komplett ausgestattet. Zwei kleine Kritikpunkte gibt es dennoch: Das Bad ist sehr klein und für große Personen wird es durchaus schwierig. Die gemeinsame Terrasse ist nur von 9:00 bis 22:00 Uhr nutzbar. Also wurde es leider nichts, mit einem guten Wein am Abend, den vorhandenen Blick auf die Kathedrale zu genießen. Das sollte im Inserat erwähnt werden. Deshalb leider nicht die volle Punktzahl, aber dennoch eine Empfehlung wert.
