Notes:

First of all, welcome to Barcelona. We’re happy to have you and we hope you have an amazing time staying in our flat. That being said, at the risk of being obvious, here are some basic ground rules:

Be mindful
We are not the police, nor do we want you to feel like we are patronizing, but we think it’s our duty to point out some common sense stuff, as we’ve had our experiences with not so well behaved guests in the past.
Respect the neighbours. Put yourself in their shoes, and keep the noise down to a minimum after 10PM. You are on holiday, but they’re probably stressed about their jobs and would appreciate a good night’s sleep. We want you to have fun, but be reasonable and don’t do unto others what you wouldn’t like done to you. Pissing them off is only going to get you into trouble, and surely you don’t need that while you’re on holiday.

No Parties!
We get it, you’re excited about being in Barcelona. But remember, the walls are thin and if you’re having a party, so are the neighbours. And maybe they’re not in the mood for that. Don’t start a fight you can’t possibly win, it’s their city and we want to respect that. Any guest that causes a disturbance will be asked to leave the apartment immediately (no refund at all to be granted). Sorry!
Also, watch out for slamming doors or hallways. Try to be quiet when entering the building, it’s not hard to be a good neighbour and we’re sure you can do it.
Also, it is not allowed to have more guests than you indicate during your reservation.

Keys & check-out
Don’t leave the keys in the mailbox. If you leave earlier than check out time, please leave the keys on the table and pull the door behind you to shut it. Most flats have the type of door that doesn’t require you to lock when you leave. That’s something to watch out for, as it’s very easy to get locked outside (which is also a bummer, take our word for it). Make sure you lock the door with the key every time you leave the flat. That way your belongings stay safer.

Don’t smoke inside
NO smoking allowed in the apartment. We care about your lungs, but if you have to do it, please step outside. We’d like to keep the flat from smelling bad when our next guests arrive.

Don’t waste energy
We kindly ask you to please turn the lights and air conditioning units OFF whenever you leave the apartment. We care about our planet.


Extra stuff
Additional cleaning, bedding etc can be arranged for a longer stay - but you have to request this while booking.


Tourist tax:
The government of Cataluñya imposes a tourist tax of €6.88 to be paid by every person over 16 per night with a maximum length of 7 days. The tax is a small price to pay in exchange for clean beaches, well-maintained roads, and good facilities.

Arrival
Standard Check-in is from 15:00h to 20:00h. However, we can accommodate late arrivals as well.
Please note the extra charges for late arrivals:
Arrivals after 8PM have to pay €25 in cash to the person making the check in with you.
Arrivals after 12AM have to pay €50 in cash to the person making the check in with you.
These charges are due to late working hours of our staff.

Departure
Check-out time is by 11AM. Arrangements can be made to leave luggage in the apartment until the departure from Barcelona if no other reservations are pending.
Note: if there is no booking for that day, talk to us about arranging a later check-out (if possible).

Lost keys
If you lose a key, there will be a charge of €50 to replace the set.

Kind request
On your last day, please wash the dishes and take out the garbage.


Interaction:

In addition to accommodation, I can organize anything that your heart desires, be it sailing trips, guided tours, any types of transport (Limousines, Bicycles, Scooters, Jet skis, Yacht, you name it). I can also arrange airport pick up for up to ten people at competitive rates. We are available 24/7 in communicating with our guests, as our main goal is for you to have a great experience.

Neighborhood:

Gràcia was once an independent town.

Perhaps that's why it feels like a village in the heart of Barcelona.

Bars, boutiques and restaurants pepper the pedestrian streets. It's a real a favourite of local residents.

Visit the colourful temple of Catalan modernism that is Park Güell. Think Spartacus meets the Flintstones. Awesome. You have to pay €8 to get in, though.

Shop for fresh food at Mercat de la Llibertat. It's an indoor market, open since 1888. You can buy fish, legumes, vegetables and other natural products.

There is a pharmacy on almost every block in Barcelona. Keep an eye out for a lit up green cross sign to denote the "farmacia."

The nearest grocery store to your accommodation is: DIA

Access

The apartment boasts a privileged location, just around the corner from the world famous Sagrada Familia. Arc de Triomf is just a few minutes away, and you will find numerous small parks to explore nearby.

The guests can access a rooftop terrace with great views of Barcelona where you can enjoy a barbecue in the fresh air.
IMPORTANT: No noise after 22 PM - we do not allow young groups looking to party!

Space

The downstairs 2 bedroom space features 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. The living room is bright and spacious, while the open plan kitchen is fully equipped for a perfect stay in Barcelona.
The upstairs studio features a large main room equipped with a sofa bed on which 1 or 2 guests can sleep, a kitchen area with table sitting for 2 and a bathroom with a shower.
The kitchen is equipped with a stove, microwave, coffee maker and all the necessary cutlery and plates.
The real highlight of the apartment is the stunning 15m² (161.5 ft²) terrace designed with wooden flooring and newly-installed electrical blinds. Enjoy a glass of wine or a meal outside in a comfortable dining area for up to 4-6 people. There is no better way to enjoy the amazing views of Barcelona!
We have a strict no party policy! The flat is in a residential building with neighbors that are very sensitive to noise beyond 10 PM!

Travelling by car?

If you are planning on driving to Barcelona, rest assured we’ll help you park your car safely. We typically recommend booking your parking spot ahead of time online, and offer a discount via parclick.
