We stayed here for 2 nights last week on a quick city break after 5 nights in Cambrills.
It is situated just off La Ramblas which is perfect. Quiet area for central location. The apartments are hard to find initially but the tip is to turn left after the tourist office on Ramblas and then a sharp right onto Carrer D'en Roca. The apartment itself was great for 4 people and a real treat to see so much around the narrow streets with lovely squares & Tapas bars.as for the view from tour apartment it was onto a very narrow street 3 storeys up and there was very quaint about it. Could not rate these apartments high enough.
Good place to stay but...

We were unaware that there is no reception staff after 2.30pm and didn't know that in order to check in we would first have to go to the sister hotel which is some distance away (fortunately the lovely lady at the laundromat opposite and some other guests staying in the apartments were able to help us out.) Furthermore, after 2.30 there is actually no signage for the apartments so for the longest time we weren't even sure we were in the right street (thanks again to the laundromat lady!) However, putting all that aside, once we were inside, we were really happy with the apartment and its location. I would definitely stay here again as long as I was checking in and out before 2.30. The apartment was really comfortable and big enough for the 3 of us. There was no tea or coffee but there are lots of grocery stores nearby.
Great Location

Very smart and clean apartments literally 1 minute walk from the Liceu Metro stop on Las Ramblas, great location but tricky to find...we had to ask at the Tourist Info Office on the corner. Really good friendly staff on check-in and check-out. We had a late flight so left our bags at the sister hotel approx. 10 minute walk away. Again the service was second to none.
Highly recommended.
Family Easter break

We arrived late at night with 3 young boys and took a bit of finding as the taxi driver could only drop us in las ramblas and pointed us in the general direction. Fortunately a nice Canadian couple seen we were lost and showed us where to go, up a small alley that doesn't look too inviting in the dark. Once we established where it was, it was all closed. I looked at the email it sent and said in the small print at the bottom that the reception is only there until 2pm each day and if arriving out of hours had to collect from the sister hotel which is a 25 minute walk away. I know it's my own fault for not reading the small print when I booked but felt it should have been a lot more visible on the email and the receptionist in the hotel when we were collecting the keys said it was very common to happen.
So after a couple of miles trek with my wife, 3 boys and 4 cases at 11pm at night once we got into the apartments we were pleasantly surprised. Enough room for the 5 of us with modern furniture, kitchen and a large spacious bathroom. It also had air conditioning which we didn't have to use as it wasn't hot enough. There was also a safe to use free of charge which isn't always the case.
The only thing I would say is the apartment we had (room 1/1) doesn't have a lot of natural light as there is only a couple of small windows and looks out to a wall, might not bother some folk but it's a small thing for me if you had to spend any great amount of time in it.
The actual location is excellent and handy to las ramblas and the main square with all the transport to get around.
The bells of the church waken you up in the morning but that's unavoidable if you choose an apartment in the centre of a busy city.
Overall, I would book the apartments again.
Loved these apartments

We booked these apartments for the great location and good price. We were pleasantly surprised to see how nice they were. The member of staff was absolutely lovely and couldn't be more helpful. We had a two bedroom apartment for 5 of us. There was a double sofa bed in the living area and a nice sized bathroom. It was small but suited us perfectly. The location was amazing. Just off La Rambla. It was tricky to find as its in a very small side street but we asked someone and they showed us where it was. It was great that we could leave our cases at the sister hotel which was easy to find.
Would definitely recommend for a short stay in Barcelona close to all the action.
