Accommodation in Barcelona

Rental from 15 August to 22 August 2014

"The accommodation was perfectly acceptable and good value. It was very useful that it had two toilets. It had air con, but this was not absolutely necessary because with all the windows open, the apartment was remarkably cool, even though it was mid August. The temperature of the water in the bathrooms could be made more constant because the water tended to gradually become scalding hot or cold. It did not stay constant for long. In the kitchen, there was only one saucepan (as well as an enormous pan and colander which were far too big to be of any use) and this was an inconvenience. There was no space to store food, like cans, tea/coffee, cereals, sugar etc, so another cupboard by the boiler would have been useful. There is a small supermarket one block down and a larger and cheaper one three blocks along. Don't bother with the Carrefour at Glories because there are many rules you have to obey and you will find very little you want. The local shops and supermarkets are much better. The market opposite Liceu metro is great, especially for fish. Tuna was €7.50 per kilo. For wonderful tapas, try Taverna Iriarte in C. Cardenal Casanas the other side of Liceu metro station. When you telephone the owner on arrival at the airport, have the address of the apartment or you will have the trouble and cost of ringing back. All in all, good value."

"Nice and clean apartment in central Barcelona. Situated in a multi ethnic area with narrow streets. Very nice welcome by host who live one stairway up. Backyard maybe not the most charming, but area is very quiet with no traffic or noise at night. You need to walk a little to find allright supermarket."

"There are several supermarkets nearby, so getting food and most common stuff is very handy. The apartment is located in a quiet street with very light traffic. The only noise comes from a nearby apartment under work (but only during working hours, so a minor hassle if you are out during daytime). The twin bedroom has no window (or better, the window is on the elevator operating space so yo can open it but it's not something you want to do normally). Good overall."

"Accommodation was cosy and well places for the sights. Great bathroom and kitchen well equipped. Departure was a little abrupt and would have liked to avail ourselves of the offer in the terms of leaving luggage in the office at Passeig de Gracia but cleaner spoke no English and so we just had to leave keys with her. All in all would stay again albeit at the discounted price we got due to the facade having work done on it. If we had not had the discount then this is overpriced accommodation."

"This apartment was excellent in all regards. The location was supreme, the accommodation was lovely, and the experience there exceeded expectations for all of our needs. Having a supermarket next door was an added bonus! There is a plethora of restaurants offering a wide range of prices. Several of restaurants in the immediate area were rated 4-5 stars yet reasonable in cost. I am impressed with the quality of service from the Cocoon representatives. We were met exactly at the time and location agreed upon and our deposit was returned before we left at the end of our stay. Internet communications were responded to appropriately considering time differences in our locations. Everyone involved was friendly and professional. "

"Nice quiet apartment next to Rambla. The stairs up to third floor were quite narrow and hard to climb with all the luggage but we made it! The living room was small and wouldn't really be big enough for 6 adults. What we were missing was the kitchen towels and clothespins, otherwise everything else was ok."
