The apartment was lovely, modern and clean and the location is fantastic. The only issue is all the photos advertising the apartment which are misleading. Now that we have stayed there we can pick out the apartment we stayed in, but I think when you’re booking it’s hard to figure out which apartment you’ll be in and how big it is because I think all of the apartments Ola Living owns in the building are shown. The apartment was smaller and different than we expected at time of booking.

Dear Mardi, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not fully meet your expectations. As our apartments are cleaned and prepared on the day of arrival, it is possible that the floors may still be slightly damp if the cleaning has just been completed before check-in. We appreciate your understanding in this regard. Regarding the insects you mentioned in the shower, we regret that this was not reported during your stay, as we would have been happy to investigate and resolve the issue immediately. As for the towels and toilet paper, these are provided according to our amenities and housekeeping policy, which was also explained during your stay when you contacted us.

Nice apartment in Gothic Quarter

Very nice, well-appointed apartment in the heart of the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona. Steps from La Rambla and Mercat de la Boqueria, but it is on a small side street so the unit is surprisingly quiet for how busy the neighborhood is. Perfect base for exploring Barcelona. I would highly recommend for couples.

Beautiful apartment and wonderful location

This apartment was terrific for our family of 4. Very short walk to Les Ramblas, la Boqueria and a subway station. The bed and the pull out bed were comfortable. The kitchen and dining room were large enough to allow us to spread out. Our apartment had little balconies which allowed us to sip coffee and watch people walk through the streets below. Definitely recommend this apartment.

Difficulty with registration process and they were not good responding! When we finally got in, it was bare bones: no salt, pepper, coffee, sugar, etc. Water was a trickle in the kitchen. No food storage items (plastic, foil, etc.). No towel holders in bathroom. Shower leaked under shower door. Bed was comfortable and the location was good. But Sunday night is trash pickup and it was unbelievably noisy for about an hour at like 3 am.

Dear Laurel, Thank you very much for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that some aspects of your stay didn’t fully meet your expectations. Regarding the registration process, we completely understand it can feel lengthy. Unfortunately, it is a legal requirement in Spain, and the process is managed through an external government system, so it’s not something we can modify. We truly appreciate your patience with it. We also take note of your comments about the kitchen equipment and maintenance issues. Our team has already reviewed them to make sure they’re improved for future stays. We’re glad you found the bed comfortable and enjoyed the location, and we hope to welcome you again under better circumstances. Kind regards, Sara Guest Service Manager

Convenient location

Great newly renovated apt in Gothic district tucked away off busy streets. Convenient to all. Check in process was ok we went to the property office and got old Fashioned key cards instead of the online key app. Saw previous reviews of confusing check in process so went right to the management office desk upon arrival. They were very helpful, but it was a weekday and they were open. Building and apartments felt like hotel vs someone’s apartment.

Enjoyable Stay in the Gothic Quarter

The location was almost perfect - a two minute walk to La Ramblas and a five minute walk to the Metro. We would stay there again. The check in process left much to be desired. I went through their (IMHO annoying) checkin process ten days ahead of our stay, and Ola Living acknowledged it. But as we were en route to Barcelona, I started getting emails saying the check in needed to be done. After a lot of email back and forth, including me having to capture an image of their website saying I was checked in, Ola Living finally let me know things were OK and sent me the digital key.

Poor people skills

Check-in was extremly poor. They had us wait outside the building for over 45mins eventhough we emailed them that we were arriving 1hour early. So after traveling for over 18hrs, waiting outside for what appeared to be no good reason really left a bad taste in our mouth. It's not like ALL the apartments are magically available at the same exact time. Then we couldn't get inside the apartment because their electronic key card system wasn't working. Housekeeping let us in. Then to convince them that we weren't doing anything wrong in terms of the key set-up, we had to send them numerous videos. They seem to always assume that the guests are wrong/stupid or incapable. We had to walk over to the management office which was about a 15min walk for a set of physical keys. They didn't even volunteer to drop off the physical keys. Lastly, we asked for an extra hour for check-out to which they responded that they couldn't because they had to accommodate the next guests who were arriving early. I responded, it was ironic since we did not get the same consideration or accommodation. They then responded, "sorry that we were confused with their policies". We weren't the ones who were confused. They totally missed the point and the mark in terms of guests services and appropriate people skills.

The location for this modern property is excellent, and it was clean and the street noise was limited. Sometimes we could hear the people upstairs or the adjoining property. But that was not a problem. You need a decent phone with service to open the doors, although they provide a code if needed. The only problem was WiFi. It was not strong and caused freezes. If you need to work from the apartment ask about its strength. For us it was around 45mbps.

Problem with Double Booking

There was an unresolved problem with a double booking wherein when the clients checked in, they were not advised that there were two bookings for the same unit. The Manager charged my clients for a "NO SHOW" which was not the case at all. I believe the apartment should have caught the double booking and contacted me or the client to clarify.
