BARCELONA APARTMENT VILLARROEL, Barcelona

The Eixample location puts you within easy walking distance of Barcelona's historic centre (15 minutes), the main shopping district (10 minutes), and several notable restaurants including Disfrutar Barcelona (0.5 km). Barcelona Sants AVE Train Station is less than 15 minutes on foot or a short metro ride away. A large supermarket (Mercadona) and the Ninot Market are directly across the street, making self-catering very convenient. The area is well-served by both metro and bus lines, and the main attractions of the city are reachable on foot for those who enjoy walking. The property's high walkability score means you can explore comfortably without relying on a car.

Each apartment features a well-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, washing machine, electric kettle, and cookware, supporting self-catering for longer stays. The living room includes a sofa bed for a fifth person. Some units have a private terrace. Beds are reported as comfortable, though the sofa bed for the fifth person is described as a basic leather sofa with no bedding or pillow set - you will need to set it up yourself and request sheets from reception. Some units face the street where noise from neighbouring apartments and outside can be noticeable, while top-floor units are noted as quieter. The double-glazing on windows is minimal, so street-facing rooms are not well suited to light sleepers. Lighting in the living area has been described as lacking at night, and some bathrooms have had maintenance issues such as poor drainage and non-locking doors.

There is no on-site restaurant or breakfast service, so all meals must be prepared in the apartment or sourced locally. The kitchen includes a full range of appliances (hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine) and cookware. Across the street, Mercadona supermarket and the Ninot market provide all groceries and fresh produce. Numerous bars, restaurants, and cafeterias - including Restaurante el Porvenir (0.5 km), Gusto (0.5 km), and O' Retorno (0.5 km) - are within a very short walk, offering varied dining options without needing to travel far from the apartment. A welcome kit with basic kitchen supplies (oil, salt, sugar) is provided.

The property does not have a swimming pool, spa, or wellness centre. For leisure, the central Eixample location provides easy access to Barcelona's parks, beaches (via metro), and cultural attractions. Bicycle rental is available for an additional charge.

Wi-Fi is free of charge in all areas. The building has a lift, though it has been reported to occasionally break down. There is no on-site luggage storage at the apartment building itself, but you can drop off bags at the main reception (Carrer Muntaner 60) before check-in or after check-out. Cleaning is provided prior to arrival and after departure; extra cleaning can be arranged for a fee during your stay. Pets are not allowed. The main reception is open 24 hours, with a separate overnight reception available late at night. All guests must provide a valid passport or official ID at check-in. The property accepts American Express, Visa, Diners Club, Maestro, and MasterCard.
