Why People Love It

  • Unbeatable location on Rambla de Catalunya
  • Walking distance to Casa Batlló and Plaça de Catalunya
  • Spacious 3-bedroom layout good for groups

Quick Take: A spacious apartment in a world-class location managed by a company with a reputation for withholding deposits and ignoring maintenance.

Reviewed by @OliviaSpiniello70320: Me and my partner needed a quick city break and this place delivered. The rooftop pool at night is magical with the skyline, and we actually used the outdoor gym! It felt super exclusive but was surprisingly affordable. Definitely grab a selfie in the elevator!

Guest Who Stayed Here Said

The hype

Guests love being in the heart of Barcelona but consistently loathe the management company's bureaucracy and lack of support.

Reality check

You might arrive to find the apartment 'tired' compared to photos, with broken AC or appliances that won't be fixed during your stay.

  • You want to step out your door directly onto a chic promenade
  • You are a large group needing 3 bedrooms on a budget
  • You don't plan to spend much time inside the apartment

Cleanliness & Maintenance

4
  • Housekeeping: Hit or miss. Many reports of floors not being swept and dust in corners upon arrival.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Frequent complaints about moldy grout, smells, and worn-out fixtures.
  • Maintenance: Poor. Broken blinds, loose handles, and malfunctioning AC units are common complaints.
  • Linens & towels: Basic industrial quality; often reported as worn or stained.

Before you book

Good to know

  • Tourist tax is charged separately upon arrival

What to pack

  • Earplugs for the street noise
  • Slippers (floors can be cold/worn)
  • Extra toiletries (starter kits are minimal)

Room Genie

Best picks

  • Interior-facing rooms for less street noise (though view will be a courtyard)
  • Higher floors if available to distance from street level

Rooms to avoid

  • Street-facing bedrooms if you are a light sleeper
  • 2nd floor units might be noisier due to proximity to street level

Room Request Genie – copy & paste

“I am requesting a unit on the highest possible floor, preferably with bedrooms facing the interior courtyard to minimize street noise.”

FAQ & Hidden tips

Everything you actually want to know before you book.

Is there a pool?

Likely no. While some 'My Space Barcelona' listings mention pools, this specific Rambla de Catalunya building typically does not have one.

Where do I check in?

You must go to the My Space Barcelona office (usually Carrer de Hercegovina 1), which is a taxi ride away from the apartment.

Is the deposit refundable?

Theoretically yes, but many reviews cite issues with deposits being withheld for 'noise' or 'damages' that guests dispute.

Is there an elevator?

Yes, the building has an elevator, though it may be small or occasionally out of service.

Is it air-conditioned?

Yes, but effectiveness varies by room and maintenance status.

Can I leave luggage?

Only at the check-in office for a fee (€5/bag), not at the apartment building itself.

Insider Tips

  • ✨

    Document EVERYTHING upon arrival: take photos of every scratch, stain, and broken item to protect your deposit.

  • ✨

    Don't rely on the 'emergency' number; response times are notoriously slow.

  • ✨

    The '3rd bedroom' is often very small, sometimes just a bunk bed or trundle.

5 things to know before you go

  • 💡The check-in office is in a completely different neighborhood (Sarrià-Sant Gervasi).

  • 💡You might be asked to take out your own trash to street bins or face a fine.

  • 💡The 'terrace' photos often belong to a different unit in the same portfolio.

  • 💡Hot water capacity can be insufficient for 6-8 people showering in a row.

  • 💡Neighbors are often local residents who are weary of tourists and quick to complain about noise.
