Apartment Colom 1-

Our apartments are located in a privileged place in the city, Carrer Colom is a small pedestrian street that connects Las Ramblas with Plaza Real. Right in the center of Barcelona, ​​in the heart of the Gothic Quarter, surrounded by an infinity of gastronomic and cultural offerings, a few steps from the Boquería Market and the Liceu, the famous Opera of the city, the port of Barcelona and the beaches of the Barceloneta, medieval monuments such as the Cathedral or Santa María del Mar, modernist monuments such as Palau Güell, the Picasso museum or the MACBA are just a short walk away. Our apartments combine the classicism of a building over 120 years old with a modern, functional design and with all the comforts: equipped kitchen, bathroom with shower, large double bed with viscoelastic mattress, parquet floors, air conditioning, television, etc. . This particular apartment has two large windows with access to two typical Barcelona balconies, high ceilings, it is distributed as a single space although the bathroom and kitchen are independent.
The building has an elevator but you have to climb about 20 steps from the street so it is not recommended for people with mobility problems. For this reason and because we do not have everything necessary for them, we do not accept children under 2 years of age or people with mobility problems.
The neighborhood is lively, bustling, full of life and tourism, the bars and restaurants are open until late, which means that some nights there can be noise in the street.
The Tourist Tax charged by the Barcelona City Council, is not included in the price and must be payed at the arrival to the apartment.

Great location. There was a little noise from the street and square but not bad at all. Clothing washer/dryer was convenient. We did one load of laundry. Washing maching worked fine but it was a bit difficult to operate. We enjoyed our time there and would stay there again.

The host was pleasant and offered suggestions for dining. There were also plenty of information booklets about getting around Barcelona. The apartment was clean and in the perfect location for us to walk to most places. It was noisy at night but we were aware of that prior to booking the apartment. I would recommend this host.

Nice place to stay if you want to be in the center of the La Rambla action. Definitely plenty of noise at night but the location is great and this place seems ideal for a stay of 3 to 10 days or so. We had a nice time there and the owner was very helpful and friendly. Be sure to follow all instructions carefully and pay attention to the check-in time window and you are apt to have a great stay.

It was our second visit to Barcelona and we loved the location of this cute and clean apartment. Our hosts went out of their way to help us get settled. The property had everything we needed. The easy access to the Metro was a bonus which we used to get around the city on our four day visit it was also easily walkable to most of the sights we visited.

One week stay with my 18 year old daughter. It was very clean and you can't beat the location. Yes, it is noisey some nights but we did so much during the day that we were exhausted and slept fine. Really comfortable bed and pillows. Would definitely stay here again.

A Stay At La Rumbla!!
Pros: Centrally located by La Rambla, spacious bedroom/living room area, air-con, kitchen & washing machine. Cons: location between La Rambla & Placa Riale was very noisy with people screaming, singing, music playing late into the night. Homeless people congregate in front of the main building entrance. Host provided 2 bath towels for each person, no facecloth. I don't believe it's very hygenic to use the same towels used on your body, hair or hands on your face. Subway runs below the building so this causes loud rumbling sounds when the subway train operates that you can hear in the apt. Small elevator services the building but doesn't service the entire building. We had to carry our suitcase up 2 flights from the front door to get to the elevator and then carry our suitcase again another 2 flights to get to the apartment. With all of the sightseeing and walking (average of 18,000 steps) we were doing every day, getting a good night's sleep was very important to recharge and rest up for the following day's adventures. I didn't look forward to climbing up the stairs each time we returned to the apartment. I tried to use earplugs to sleep but it was uncomfortable sleeping with earplugs. If sleep and the quality of sleep is important to you, I would not recommend this apartment.

Property is spacious, comfortable and close to most places. However, it’s located on Plaza Real, which is extremely loud until early morning hours. Pillows are very firm and curtains don’t have any backing so its difficult to siesta during sunlight.

Noisy and at times scary
We knew about the noise. We had earplugs. But continuous yelling, arguing and screaming every night until 0530 was unsettling. We walked out one morning and a homeless person was peeing. Homeless slept outside the door every night. The shower was great, but the bathroom was uncomfortably small. Maybe(?) 12” between the front edge of the toilet and the wall. We definitely would not stay there again.

Just Off Rambla
The apartment worked well for our short stay in Barcelona. While the listing say there is an elevator it does not state that the lift does not come to the ground floor. There is a one floor climb to the first floor where there is access to the lift. As we were there in early February, not on a weekend, we did not have any of the issues with noise that other reviews have mentioned. The place was clean and the bed comfortable, and communication with Carles was very easy.

Wonderful Stay
The Colom appartment is perfect for two people and the location can't be beat. You are less than 2 blocks from the metro and in the heart of the Gothic quarter. Check in was super easy and Carles was there to great us. He graciously let us check in early. The appartment is very clean and quite large, though more of a studio than a one bedroom appartment. The bathroom and kitchen are separate, but the sitting areas and bed are in the same room. This was perfect for us, as the room was bright and had lovely windows with small balconies. Yes, the area is a bit noisy (though we were there in off season) but not particularily a problem. The metro hums away, but isn't loud. If you are worried about this, just bring some ear plugs. There are some narrow stairs to the elevator, so if you have a disability this won't work, but otherwise the little bit of extra exercise was good. I would definitely rent this appartment again.

We really enjoyed our stay. Carles was an excellent host and was very clear and precise. The listing said there was a king bed which was a big part of why I booked but I don’t think that was the case. The location is also in a fairly noisy neighbourhood. We both needed to sleep with ear plugs in. But it is also very conveniently near a lot of things so if you can sleep through noise I would recommend it.

Great Option Right in the Heart of Barcelona
This apartment is a great option for couples looking to be in the heart of Barcelona's old city center. The location is unrivaled -- just off of Las Ramblas with a partial balcony view of the gorgeous Placa Reial. It was very nice to open the balcony windows and invite the city in during the afternoon and evening. The big plus of the location is that you are close to everything and conveniently located on one of the major metro lines. The minus is that, as others have noted, is the street-level noise at night is significant. This includes the metro line running just below street-level, which was noticeable. But that has to be expected, and we appreciated that the host -- both in the listing and at check-in -- was very up front about this. We knew what to expect, and we got used to the noise very quickly. The concerns about "safety" noted in some previous reviews are, in my opinion, overblown. Yes, there is a lot of street activity late at night, including homeless individuals who tend to hang out on this block. However, there is also a large police station directly across Las Ramblas, and the sheet amount of activity going on means that you are never isolated or alone. Not once did we ever feel unsafe or uncomfortable. The apartment itself is what we in the U.S. would consider a "studio" rather than a full 1-bedroom, but we found it sufficient to our needs. The bathroom and kitchen both have a modern feel, and the kitchen is actually very large by European standards. We enjoyed our stay very much. The only factors that kept this from being a "5" in our book involved some practical details that could easily be addressed to make the apartment a bit more user-friendly. For example, we were only provided with 2 bath towels and a few hand towels, which would have been a problem during a longer stay. Oddly, there is no paper towel holder in the bathroom, and we never managed to find the hair dryer noted in the listing. Otherwise, the unit was great.

First time in Barcelona, and could not have chosen a better location and flat. Close to the subway,market, grocery store, taxi stands, and most importantly close proximity to all the attractions The city has to offer. Walking around in the Gothic corner where the unit is located ,you will never tire of. Have traveled with Vrbo for many years our host Carles and the unit will remain on the top of our favorites to visit again, and would highly recommend to all family and friends.
