Cozy and Cute
Cozy, cute, clean and efficient apartment mere steps from the Sants Train Station but yet off the main road easily accessible by a ramp. The building has a lift large enough for two adults and two large suitcases. Nice "local" type neighborhood with plenty of restaurants. Kitchen completely outfitted including washer and dryer. Good wi-fi. No exhaust in main bathroom with large shower. Did not use the tiny shower in the 2nd bathroom. We used the 2nd bedroom which had bunk beds for our suitcases. Secure building. Easy check-in. Property Manager met us at the apartment minutes before 9:00 pm on a Saturday night, (when our train arrived.) Fabulous customer service.

For young group tour
We arrived around 9:45pm and we informed th hotel our arrival time but we had to wait outside building more than 10mins. The building does not have a sign and no entry. It is a littile hard to find at night. The smoking is not allowed but the elevaltor hall connected with the stair case has smoking smell all the time. It needs to be ventilated often. The room has all functions but most of them are old. The cleaniness was not bad but you need to pay for the clean service. The city fee is additonal for per person and per a night.

Dear Min Jae, Thank you so much for your review. Our apologies if you had to wait more than 10 minutes outside until one of us arrived; for that reason it is very important to us to recieve your phone call 40minutes before you arrive to do this process more confortable for you. Also we send by email a map of the area to show where the apartment is located. As you mentioned all our apartments are not smoking but sometimes it is very hard to us to control this. Regarding the clean service is included in the rate but if you would like to have an extra clean service, it is under request with an extra fee. Lastly, the city fee is additional because here at Barcelona we can not charge before guest has arrived. Again, we really appreciate your time to send us your comments. Thank you,

The property was located close to the main train station and main shopping street. The restaurant across the street was fantastic also. We could hop on the tourist bus easily too. The communication regarding our arrival was also a positive. The apartment had a washer and drier, which was a bonus. However, the room that we were given did not match what appeared on the booking site.

Great location if you want to be close to Barcelona Sants. I love that they have washer and dryer machine in the unit. It's really helpful when you have a long journey and have limited clothes. I also love that they have a kitchen so I can cook my own food which saves me a lot of money. Be mindful when checking in as they don't have 24 hours reception. If you arrive late after 9PM, they will charge you 25€. I should've read their fine prints before booking my flight. There are a couple of issues in the unit, like AC not turning on and an electric outage. I contacted their emergency number and the staff was really helpful and quick at solving the problems. One downside I feel about the apartment is I think the room is quite dusty. I could tell because I'm sensitive to dust. Otherwise, overall my experience staying at this apartment was great.

This apartment was all we could have wished for
When we arrived in Barcelona we arranged a meeting with a staff member to admit us to the apartment. She arrived exactly at the time specified, took us to the apartment, explained the entry procedure and security. She also gave us information about sightseeing in the city and the instructions for the appliances etc. The apartment was spotlessly clean, very well appointed and safe and secure in a position very close to the Sants railway station, tourist buses and amenities, excellent and varied restaurants, and a supermarket nearby. We were delighted with everything.

Great place! Clean, spacious and convenient.
This place is great! It's steps to everything; train station, subway station, restaurants, supermarkets, McDonald's and pharmacies, etc. This apartment has all the appliances you need; stove, oven, microwave, and even a washing machine and dryer too. It just feels like home. Lisa, the person who greets us, was very nice and helpful. She kindly explains everything inside the apartment. Also, she showed us how to get to the pharmacy and helped us translate to get some medicines. She was great help. I definitely recommend others to stay in this apartment when they visit Barcelona.

Ideal for visitors preferring self-catering
InsideBarcelona Apartments are run by a young, enthusiastic team who try to please. We can confirm all the positives said about them/the apartment in other reviews. It is a very good value-for-money proposition. The lobby to the building may not be inspiring but once you enter the very modern lift and see the sparkling mirror inside you know that you have arrived at a place where cleanliness matters. The air conditioning in the studio copes well. We were also impressed with the sound insulation to the pedestrianized street and the adjoining flats. It was so good that exited Spanish voices did not penetrate. However, couples should bear in mind that the heavily secured door to the landing is far from soundproof and noises from inside will be clearly heard on the staircase. The neighbourhood is frequented/lived in by a cross-section of ages including young families. We did not notice any loutish behaviour or drunkenness day or night.

3 train stops from Airport
The most important thing is that the Apartment building is 3 stops from the airport. Barcelona Sants or Sants Estacio. Definitely call ahead to have someone to meet you to let you in. Look for the AC Hotel and take the deep alley on the side furthest from the station. Overall the apartment was spacious for two and the location was perfect for hopping on and off the train. No daily cleaning service though so be aware of that. The neighborhood was pleasant and had a few 24 hour marts nearby. Overall, nice place to spend a few days.

Comfortable clean light apartment. Excellent travel directions from the staff so found it easily. Very close to metro and supermarket and a good patisserie. Kitchen well equipped with cooker, microwave, washing machine and dryer, Good sized fridge and freezer. Liked the bathroom with a bath and shower. . TV had several news programmes in English including BBC world. It was a very good base for exploring Barcelona. If we holiday in Barcelona we shall certainly stay here again. We were able to visit everywhere we wanted to from the apartment using Barcelona's excellent metro. We cooked mostly in the apartment but there were lots of cafes and bars nearby.

Convenient Location - Great Experience
We stayed 7 nights at Barcelona Sants and we loved it! It was close to all the "non-touristy" things such as great restaurants, fantastic cafes, the train station, 15 minute walk to Camp Nou and easy access to the metro. What we found is that things were less expensive in this area than in a more touristic area which was fantastic. People were really friendly and welcoming and even if they spoke no English, really worked to help give us a great experience. The apartment was very clean and worthwhile as it has all the amenities that you need such as laundry, full bathroom, television, stereo and wireless internet. The kitchen is fantastic with a microwave, full fridge and freezer and an oven to cook in. The staff at Barcelona Sants are great as they helped make our stay as easy as possible by contacting us before we left, giving us information on soccer games or car rentals and helping us find out way around the city. We're planning another trip to Barcelona in the next 2 years and we ABSOLUTELY will stay there again!

This is a good residence to stay, but there is only a bad thing that the hot water won't last only 20 mins. The hot water tank is only 80L, so it takes about two hours to make the water hot again. Except that, it's recommendable..

Nice apartment. Great location
Lisa from Inside Barcelona met us at the apartment address within minutes of the agreed upon time. Our studio apartment was clean and looked as if it were furnished by IKEA. There was a living, dining, bedroom combination room, a kitchen, a full bathroom, and a small balcony. There is an elevator. Appliances included an apartment size stacked washer and dryer, a dishwasher, an electric teapot, 4 cup coffee maker, toaster, refrigerator, freezer, microwave, stove with oven, hair dryer, iron and ironing board, and a flat screen satellite TV. There was a regular hotel type safe in the closet, there was a drying rack, 4 place settings of dishes and silverware and adequate utensils and cooking equipment. They provided dishwasher detergent, liquid dish-washing soap, a roll of paper towels, liquid hand washing soap, a bottle of water, and toilet paper. There were 2 large bath towels and 2 hand towels. We brought our own bath soap, shampoo, wash cloths, and washing machine detergent. Since we rented the unit for a full week, one cleaning and change of linens was included at no extra charge. This is a city neighborhood near a metro stop. The ground floor of most buildings had shops, restaurants, and bars. Upon arrival we were given a little map of the neighborhood with restaurants marked and descriptions of the type of food and their hours of operation. We especially liked TerraD'Escudella and Pio Pio.

Close to Sait station,but so so...
Stayed there for 4 nights. No one ever came to clean the room or changed towels etc. We decided to stay in an apartment simply because there would be a kitchen where you may want to cook your own food sometimes. However, the downside is the cleanliness of the room failed in reaching to a satisfactory level. Would be better if someone can come occasionally and clean the room. Although the staff was extremely friendly and there was a really good seafood restaurant nearby which was handy!

Lovely!
We stayed here at the end of October and the apartment was lovely. It took us about 15-20 minutes in a taxi from Barcelona airport and the girl who greeted us was very helpful. Everything in the apartment was new and in good condition. Big bathroom and nice sized kitchen with all utensils and even a dishwasher, washer and dryer. Only complaint really was that we had two single beds and not a double. You were a two minute walk to the metro stop allowing you to get anywhere in the city.Theres also a little square just down from the apartment with a few restaurants and bars which were really inviting where locals sit in the square til around 12 at night on the weekend. But any noise created here was not heard in the apartment. If you walk down the main road (past the sants reigo metro stop) for about 15 minutes it leads you to the monument at the bottom of the Art Gallery where the fountains are. There are some chain restaurants here and a shopping centre. Overall perfect I would definately recommend this apartment and would stay here again.
