My friend and I stayed at the Inside Barcelona apartments for a week in early December and it was absolutely lovely! What an amazing place to stay for an amazing price in an amazing area of the city! It really couldn't have been better, we were so happy with our stay here, and the Inside Barcelona office/help desk people were so friendly and accommodating! We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this apartment and it really made our trip memorable! Our apartment was on the 4th floor of the Carrer Comercial 15 building, and basically had everything we could ask for and more! Upon walking in, there was a bathroom with sink and shower, next to a large bedroom with two beds. The staircase leads you upstairs from here, where the living area, kitchen, and second bedroom are located. The living area was complete with comfy chairs and a couch, and a flat screen TV and coffee table. There was also a dining table with chairs, and a full service kitchen complete with fridge, stove, sink, and stocked with dining utensils and cookware. The second bedroom is upstairs also, with a bed, desk, and private balcony. The living room also has a big beautiful balcony you can walk out on and we had a great view from the 4th floor! Some great sunsets here! The layout of the apartment was really perfect, and we absolutely enjoyed our time here! All amenities also are provided, such as towels, sheets, kitchenwares, even a large bottle of water in the fridge! I believe if you stay a certain number of days they also have a maid service that will come in and clean. Basically everything a hotel provides you with and more! Another huge plus is how helpful the staff at Inside Barcelona are. They give you detailed instructions on how to get here when you arrive (I took the train from the airport), even which trains to hop on/off of, which was super helpful. I got there without a hitch and met them in their office, then they escorted me to the apartment, showed me around, and went over all the details. They also give you handouts about events going on in the area, where the closest conveniences are such as grocery stores, ATMs, etc, and they can get tickets for you to all the major Barcelona attractions and day trips. WOW they were so helpful, it was wonderful! We ended up booking tickets to an FC Barcelona game through them and it worked out perfectly! They really did think of everything you could need and were very accommodating and super friendly! The icing on the cake is that this apartment building is right in the middle of the best area, we really loved exploring El Born and found so many wonderful restaurants and cool sights and things to do in this district, we were really happy to stay here! Its close to the Estacio Franca (train station), Picasso Museum, a big park, tons of restaurants and a lively bar scene, and a short walk to the metro. Also close is the Bascilica de Santa Maria del Mar, a huge beautiful gothic church that isn't to be missed! There is a ton to do in this area, just a short walk away. That being said, our apartment was quiet as a mouse, we didn't have any trouble sleeping at all and didn't hear any loud noises at night at all, which was wonderful. Our stay here was superb and I recommend anyone travelling to Barcelona to stay here! Its amazing value for your money, we had a wonderful time and really enjoyed ourselves. The place was perfect, the location was perfect, and the staff of Inside Barcelona really were perfect, we had the best time and staying here really made the experience memorable!…
