This tiny apartment is ideal for a couple who want to explore Barcelona. A short walk to La Sagrada Familia, it’s in a well-supplied area: bakeries, bars and little supermarkets are in every block. We loved our stay and the property managers were responsive and welcoming

Great location to walk everywhere, but in a neighborhood away from bustle of old town. Many steps to climb but apartment has everything you need (except coffee maker) and could use some routine maintenance.
The apartment is in a great location and very quiet. The furniture was comfortable and the terrace was quite nice. I rarely needed to use the A/C, which was also nice.
All in all, my stay there was very pleasant.

Great area
In a great area and cute flat. Arian was very accommodating and friendly! Could use some updates and repairs
Excellent location, nice and clean apartment. Hosts were wonderful. But you have to climb five flights of stairs to get to the apartment, and this was a huge problem as my husband and I are both in a mid 70s. I think that this information should be easily available when people are looking at this appointment.
We are extremely pleased with our stay at this location. The owner was very proactive communicating with us in due time. Throughout our stay, the client service was five stars for sure.
And what to say about the location…location location location…

Many thanks for your kind words , welcome back any time , arian & watermelon team
Nice place. Having the terrace was great! The location was really good for exploring the city, though if you love the beach I would recommend nearer to Barceloneta, it is still walkable and the walk is nice. Plenty of bars/restaurants near by as well as shops. The stairs will keep you fit! Overall we really enjoyed our stay!

Nice and quiet place with walking distance and view of the Sagrada Familia! Need to be able to climb flights of stairs as there is no elevator/lift. Yet, we found it worthwhile staying there. Host Arian communicates well and is a fantastic host, even provided welcome wine!
We liked it a lot to stay in this flat. The bed was very cozy and the kitchen had everything you need to cook: stove microwave toaster, kettle...and even spices.
A real highlight is the roof terrace. It could also be used by the other people in the house but we were always there alone. We can definitely recommend the flat!
Clean, quiet and cozy. Everything we needed.
Comfortable bed, my son slept on the sofa and was very comfortable. Plenty of hot water for two. Compact kitchen….hey your in Barcelona who cooks. We enjoyed the location and walked everywhere.
Cute apartment with a wonderful patio for mornings and evenings. Fifth floor, difficult with large bags because there is no elevator. Good air conditioning. Close to tapas and tourist shops. Back side view of Sagrada Familia. We had a very nice stay and walked everywhere.
Apartment was close to stores and transportation. Fabulous apartment with roof top balcony (5th floor, no elevator). Host with good communication skills. We stayed for 3 nights, saw many attractions and did lots of eating, shopping and sight seeing. Highly recommend!

Arian is a great host. He met us at the property and welcomed us. He left us a bottle of wine.and fruit as well as organized our trip to the airport. The apartment is well located with many sites and restaurants within walking distance. I would recommend this place to anyone who can walk up 4 flights of stairs. The lovely terrace when you get there makes it worthwhile.
The apartment is well located to get anywhere with the metro. There are plenty of restaurants around and a convenient market on the street.
The apartment is on the 5th floor and there is no elevator, so if you are not in shape, I would not recommend. It is quite a climb with luggage or after a long day of walking through the city.
Arian was very welcoming and we enjoyed our stay.
We had a late checkin, almost midnight, and our host was there to open the taxi door for us. He was very easy to contact. Up the stairs with luggage was not as bad it sounds. Lovely air flow and the air conditioner worked well. Bed was comfy and the bath was small but had everything we needed. The location was about a 5 minute walk to Sagrada Familia. There were many places to eat and shops nearby. Our host also gave us several of his favorite places to go around the city. Great trip!
The property was in a good location and Tanni was great to work with! She was quick with responses to our questions and met us upon arrival. As others mentioned, the 90+ steps were a tad challenging but there were landings for quick rests. The patio was wonderful and offered added space to relax. Although the string lighting didn’t work and a chair needed repair, I’m sure Arian and Tanni will be quick to fix and freshen up the area as they were truly interested in any insight on how to make our experience better.

Dear Sue,
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay in our apartment and we appreciate the points you raised. We will definitely follow up on them. Unfortunately, the issue with the main power key at the building entrance has been reported to the building manager several times, but has not been addressed yet. However, the second power key always works and you could have used it. We hope to see you again soon.
Best regards,
Watermelon Team
Was here for a long weekend with my partner. Location is great, property is nice, lovely terrace area. Owner is really nice and friendly- can’t do enough for you. Not suitable for those with less mobility as there’s a lot of stairs. Would stay here again. I would advice getting precise location before finding on gmaps as we walked 30 mins in wrong direction only to find we’d walked past it long ago. (The street numbers don’t flow)
The property was just what we were looking for... a little corner of Barcelona that had access to the Born, Gothic, and Gracia areas. HOst was knowledgeable and accommodating, especially because he allowed us into the property a little early... our flight was quite early, and we had luggage we wanted stored, so we could run right out and enjoy yhe city. As always with VRBO, the unit offered us a taste of that European local vibe. Mind you, there are several flights up to the rooftop flat, which can be daunting with luggage, but the access to the terrace made it worth it. Well worth the value, as long as you don't mind navigating the steps.
