Fantastic and Bright Apartment in the Heart of Gothic area 10 min from the beach

Great 70 m² apartment with lots of natural light that consists of 4 exterior balconies, living-dining room with 1 comfortable double sofa bed, two double bedrooms (one of them en suite), kitchen and 2 complete bathrooms with shower. Apartment is in an old building typical of the Gothic quarter. Both have been recently renovated. The modern and beautiful decoration of the apartment combines perfectly with the old style of the building. The building is accessed from Ripoll Street but the apartment and the main façade face the Plaza dels Peixos (Fish Square). The apartment is completely exterior with four balconies that face the street, it is a 2nd floor with lots of natural light. In its rehabilitation, all the original architectural elements were respected. Public parking very close to the apartment (Avinguda de la Catedral). The building where the apartment is located is right next to the Gothic cathedral of Barcelona, just 500 meters from the port and its adjacent beaches. Due to its unique location, it is not necessary to use any type of transport, being a 5-minute walk from Las Ramblas and Plaça Catalunya. Most of the museums and most important attractions are accessible on foot, however the main Bus and Metro lines are located right next to the apartment. It does not have an elevator like most of the old buildings in the Gothic quarter.




The city of Barcelona has a tourist tax of 5€ per person/ day to be paid in cash on arrival at the apartment.


* If the arrival is later than 20:00h, there will be a surcharge of 30 € to be paid in cash on arrival.
**If the arrival is later than 00:00h, there will be a surcharge of 50€ to be paid in cash at the time of arrival.

It was great staying in the heart of Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Even though a fiesta in the plaza around the corner made for a very noisy first night (it quieted to normal city sounds by 3am), it was nice to be within walking distance of so many sites, restaurants, etc. A wonderful stay.

Perfect location. Close to restaurants, shopping, land marks, and more. Can get noisy at night but I brought ear plugs. Has everything you’ll need to relax in between your daily activities. Highly recommend

Gothic stay
The property is in a great location. It’s accessible to lots of great restaurants and the cathedral is minutes away. The only real complaint is there are 42 steps to get up to your apartment which is not fun when lugging luggage. The view is lovely.

Great setup and convenient location
The property was perfect for two women friends traveling together with two bedrooms and two baths and located so close to all the key attractions in Barcelona. There was ample warning about it being a few flights of stairs up. We're in our mid 70s and managed that well by mutual aid with our luggage up and down. The apartment was light and bright with good ventilation from the balconiy doors ( there is AC but we didn’t need it as temps outside were in the mid 60s.). We didn’t know until check in that the tap water was dicey in that old section of town, so a word about that ahead of time would have been helpful. Apart from that, everything was as advertised and our stay was pleasant.

No complaints, it is 2 Studio apartments joined together as described. When I made the transaction I received an email saying I would have to pick up the keys at one location and then taxi to the apartment. I was not made aware of that during the transaction and emailed back letting Simona know that we had 18 hours of flights to deal with and wouldn't be on board with that procedure, she emailed me right back and said we were to call her when we landed and she would have someone meet us at the apartment. All communications were excellent, the apartment is as described, yes the stairs are steep as described in other reviews but not that bad. Location is everything, right in the heart of the Gothic Quarter. Highly recommended and thank you Simona for all the help.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Nice cute apartment but there was a major issue: you hear all the noise from the streets and from other tenants in the building all night, which affected our sleep quality & the whole trip. The towels provided left black fluffs on the skin. The second bedroom was freezing at night as no heating. The main bedroom shower didn't drain well. The check-in process could have been clearer as I didn't know how to get in the apartment building. The location was brilliant as it's in the Gothic quarter but close to Catalunya Paza. You have plenty of living space unlike a tiny hotel room.
