The Neighborhood:
The apartment is located just by Plaça de les Glòries Catalanes, most often shortened to Glòries. It was first designed by Ildefons Cerdà to serve as the city centre in Barcelona's original urban plan due to its strategic location; bordering Eixample district and at the junction of three of the city's most important thoroughfares: Avinguda Diagonal, Avinguda Meridiana and Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes.

Getting Around:
The closest metro station is Glories (Line 1).
The quickest way to go to the airport would be taking the bus "Aerobus" at Plaça Catalunya, in front of "El Corte Inlges". The cost is around 4.5€

Other Things to Note:
*** TOURIST TAX & REGISTRATION PROCESS ***

- Since 2012 the Catalan administration requires that every guest staying in a hotel room or renting an apartment in Catalunya contributes with a small fee of 2.25€ + VAT per person over 17 years old and per night up to a maximum of 7 nights. Also, from 2022 Barcelona City Council applies 3.25€ + VAT to the tourist tax as a city tax fee, also per person over 17 years old and per night up to a maximum of 7 nights.

- This cost of 6.65€ per person over 17 years old and per night up to a maximum of 7 nights IS NOT included on your reservation.

- National and International police demand that each guest, prior to their visit to Barcelona, would send information of their IDs or passports. This is mandatory, as it is stated in Catalan Law, and all legal touristic establishments are required to do so.

- This apartment uses a self-checkin system via the Chekin platform that will allow you to register all guests on the reservation and pay the mandatory tourist taxes before your arrival.

Needs TLC but amazing rooftop patio
The overall stay for three adults was comfortable. There were updates and fixes that needed attention and a bad sewer smell a couple of times but believe that had to do with the building and not just our room. The most important part is the rooftop patio all to ourselves. So spacious and amazing views. The perfect place to unwind in the evening with a bottle of wine.

Family trip
This apartment was great for our group of 3. It is just around the corner from the Metro station and was super convenient for getting around. (I recommend getting the Hola Barcelona travel card as that includes the Metro all the way to the airport) If I could give the owner a 10 for ease of check in and communication, I would. He messaged us a few days in to see if we needed anything, and gave us some recommendations for some great restaurants! I highly recommend this apartment and owner!

On the plus side, the huge rooftop terrasse with great views was formidable. The location, close to the metro, the tram and the enormous flea market was great too. The AC worked very well. The apartment was very clean. That being said, the terrasse plants were not maintained at all with dead and overgrown plants. The bathroom had no towel racks or hooks as well as no counter space or at least a shelve next to the sink. There was an awful sewer smell coming from the shower drain which was easily fixed by putting a plastic bag over the drain. The bag had to be removed for a shower but worked well for the smell. The apartment itself needs maintenance as paint was peeling and some things like the shower head fixture were broken. Also, there is noise from the elevator that you can hear from the bedroom at night every time it is used.

Great neighborhood and apartment
We loved the Sant Marti neighborhood and the apartment itself. The view from the patio was amazing! The only negative to the experience was the strong sewage smell when we first entered the property. I saw this mentioned in other reviews. It was very hot and humid in BCN when we arrived and with the apartment having been closed up it was a really strong odor. We opened all the windows and sliding door to get a breeze going and it was better about 36 hours later. Also, ceiling fans would be a wonderful addition to this property. I don't expect AC in Europe, but fans would have really helped with the warm temps and humidity! However, I would definitely stay in this neighborhood and at this property again. The pros definitely outweighed the cons.

Great location, nice neighbors/neighborhood
The apartment is very close to the Glories (Glory-es)metro line which can get you anywhere. Westfield the biggest mall in Barcelona located 10 min walk away. Huge grocery store/great prices. Behind the "egg". One of the largest flea markets is directly opposite the metro station. check dates. The Meditteranean/Arab restaurant downstairs is wonderful and a great bakery around the corner. There is also 2 markets next to the restaurant for drinks, snacks wine, etc. There is a lot of construction going on in the area. This affects access to/from the metro station, so just be aware. There are new cranes in the sight line to La Sagrada Famila, but the terrace is AWESOME in nice weather. The best neighborhood Tapas bar we went to was Cabo Bar Restaurant Marina, Carrer de la Marina, 124 Esquina, L'Eixample, 08013 Alibey, Great food & drink. Nice red wine at 3 euros a glass, huge whiskey pour at 7. Highly recommed the potatoes brava, croquettes, "bomb", gratinated provolone (like cheese fondue served with bread), wanted to try more but we were full. I was a little disappointed with the "amenities" in the apartment. We received1 roll of toilet paper, 1 paper towel & small dishwashing bottle. No extra garbage bags, cleaning supplies/soap Maybe it's an American thing but most places in this price range offer a bit more. The owners did supply garbage bags, and a tea towel after asked (here was no drying rack for the sink). I hope you have as much fun at this accomodation as we did!

Stay in Roof Top Apartment
1st i would like to say that communication was exceptional so thank you. Unfortunately we had a few issues with the apartment. The biggest issue was the smell - Barcelona seems to have a sewer problem at the moment and the worst of it seemed to end up in kitchen but particularly the bathroom which, at times, was unbearable and made it unpleasant to spend time in the flat. The location was pretty good, near Gracia metro but unfortunately it is currently a massive building site - i am not sure how long that will last. The kitchen is tired with equipment being very old and not a thing was left apart from a cleaning kit - no tea, coffee, etc. The sitting room is not in its current layout and does not have a rig which made the stone floor very cold at this time of year. Just a small word of warning - the flat is accessed via a phone app & on one day the cover fell off and the batteries fell out - luckily whilst we were inside as the lock would not work. We taped the cover back on but what if the batteries run out whilst out? We made the best of our stay but unfortunately did not feel it was value for money

Good for a temporary stay
The apartment was nearly everything as advertised. The check-in process is extremely easy. The vibe is comfortable. Nice light shining in everyday. The kitchen is very clean. You will have to buy basics like salt, butter or olive oil, coffee, tea. Some rentals have this, others don’t. The location is a 2 min walk from the metro. About a 10 min walk to a Westfield mall with lots of shopping and eating options. I recommend Honest Greens. Super fresh food and very affordable. The kitchen has a view of La Sagrada Familia. Nice dining room. Convenient and gives you what you need for a short stay.

Needs repairs
The unit had broken light switches as well as a strong sewer odor coming from the bathroom. When it rained, water leaked in the hallway. The views are now compromised by new buildings next door and new building construction while looking at la Sagrada familia. The patio needs some upkeep as plants are un kept and over grown. Also many cigarette butts in the planters. The space of the unit is accurate but needs some repairs and updating.

A getaway in the Sun
I had an amazing stay at this location. It's close to the busses, rail, and tram station for easier access to public transportation. It's also close to the Westfield Glories shopping center. There's also a convenience store and grocery store on the ground floor of the property for easy food shopping. I spent many hours on the private terrace enjoying the sun, breeze and view. Communication with the host was easy and pleasant. Wifi was of high speed. I would definitely book this place again.

Amazing Terrace
I stayed here for a whole month whilst working in Poblenou. The location was perfect, close to work but easy to get anywhere (including trains to Montserrat and Girona for weekend trips). Location is great with Glòries shops for groceries and everything. But the best part is the beautiful terrace that I spent many hours relaxing, eating and just enjoying the ambience of Barcelona.

Potentially good, but needs more care by owner.
Close to Segrada Familia and to Glories metro and walkable distance to beach. The balcony is potentially good, but is currently in the middle of a building site and very noisy during the day. Pleasant in the evening when the drilling has stopped. The apartment is comfortable, but poorly equipped. No kettle, no dish towel. no corkscrew. Manager was quickly responsive to text messages, but the digital key (access by app on your phone) means you never actually meet anyone and there is no leaflet of explanations or directions. So find your own route to the wifi password and we didn't even bother with the television. It's a developing area with good shopping nearby, by metro essential for access to city centre. Potentially good but needs more investment in basic hospitality by the owner.

terrific Barcelona flat
This is such a great flat. It is a block and a half from the Gloria red line station, which gets you quick access to the Gothic district and the museums near the Catalonia station. The roof-top patio is really big and just the best place to enjoy the evening views of La Sagrada Familia and the mountains north of Barcelona. There is a galley style kitchen that was great for making breakfast or an evening cooking with family. The dinning room is nice. And there is a fold out couch so you could have 4-5 people there. There is a washer in a room off the patio, and that is a unique bonus if you are staying more than a couple of nights. There is also a grocery store in the first floor of the building and another about 2 blocks away, so great for picking up drinks and other food. The managers were easy to communicate with on email. Thanks for letting us stay.
