The overall area was very sociable. Within a 2 minute walk was a plaza with many restaurants, bars and shops. This made evening dining and activities very convenient. The only inconveniences with this specific place was the 4 flights of stairs to access the room (only an issue with multiple suitcases, which we had) and the need for a physical check-in with the management company to get the keys and be escorted to the apartment. Due to our early morning arrival time, we had to wait around a half hour to be able to meet with them to get to the apartment. Thankfully, he also helped with the suitcases. Overall though, I would recommend this place and it's location was perfect to enjoy many of the aspects of Barcelona.

Amazing property and location!

Kay, Christine and Sarah were all amazing to communicate with. Everything was super easy from a late check-in to check out. The location was amazing with the majority of everything within walking distance including Barceloneta Beach. Some of the best restaurants in Barcelona are with a 5-15 minute walk from the property. We would absolutely stay here again. Kay and Christine, thank you for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful apartment in the heart of Born

We had a lovely stay at Kay’s apartment. Check in was great. Both Kay and Sarah communicated well throughout our stay. We loved the neighborhood and walkability of the area. The apartment was accurate from the listing, clean, and comfortable. There were some issues with the security alarm and smoke detectors going off unexpectedly, which Kay and Sarah addressed promptly and professionally. Overall, I’d recommend this place to other small families of 3 to 4 people when visiting Barcelona.

Upsides were: Great location, easy to walk everywhere, clean and very easy to contact Kay. Kay responded very quickly when issues with washer/dryer arose. Used drying rack as unable to use dryer. Downsides were: bed sags badly in middle so bad back each morning, lounge suite the same and uncomfortable, very noisy through the night and able to hear all neighbours through walls and ceiling, curtains don’t stop light and streetlight make it hard to sleep..

Excellent location, wonderful place to stay!

We booked the property for a week in November for a family trip with our two teenagers. The apt is on a quiet pedestrian street so there is no traffic noise. It is just off the del Born street so you are very close to all theTapas and shopping you can handle. The location is also within walking distance of all the tourist hot spots. You can walk to the beach in 10min, to Sagrada Familia in 25min, and all other points of interest in 10-15min. The apt is very clean and perfectly sized for a group of 4 people with a nice little kitchen and plenty of room to relax after a long day of exploring the city.

This apartment was in an amazing location in the El Born area. It’s in a pedestrian area so very quiet. We loved being able to walk right out of the apartment to all the shops and restaurants. The owner was so wonderful with all my questions and helped with connecting me with her hairdresser before our son’s wedding. We would definitely stay here again!

El Born

A great property and experience overall. I've stayed at many VRBO and other such properties, but never before was the host so attentive in advance and check-in experience so perfectly seamless. The property itself is tucked away in a quiet little part of El Born, yet still in the heart of it. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and this entire, large apartment, was spotless. It was well appointed including every little thing you would need in the kitchen if you were staying more than the two days we did. There is no question that we would stay here again. Highly recommend it.

Kay’s property was exactly as described and shown in photos. It has a great location as it is in the middle of lively El Born while also on a quiet street. The waterfront is easily accessible, we were there for The Americas Cup. Loved having laundry machine, air conditioning along with extra fans and the extra bed for our daughters visit! I would stay again if ever in Barcelona. Thanks Kay.

Amazing stay!

Kays flat was a great spot for all our adventures in Barcelona! The Born area is by far our favorite place after exploring the city-so many fun restaurants nearby and the beach is a short walk. We had plenty of space in the flat, it was clean and well stocked and we felt very safe. There are some steps up to the flat, (only 24) so if you have mobility issues keep that in mind. Hoffmans bakery was a daily stop for sweets! Beds are comfortable the bathroom was roomy and spotless. We would stay again when in Barcelona!
