At certain situations where the next guests are checking in later, we may be able to offer to keep the luggage later, in any case before the check-in of arriving guest/s. DURING YOUR STAY - Parties, dancing and/or playing loud music at the apartment is strictly prohibited as we need to owe a duty of care to our neighbours.

In the case of this happening we will communicate with Airbnb in relation to charging a compensation in the amount of two nights stay. - All dishes and utensils if left unwashed at he apartment must be left inside the dishwasher. --------------- The eclectic apartment is mostly complimented on is its uniqueness, attention to detail and - as you will see from the guests' reviews - the fact that it has been done with lot of love. Each piece of furniture has been chosen by myself either during my 'vintage hunts' in Barcelona or the world travels. Other interesting comment (as per reviews) is that it has been done with "impeccable taste". The flat has new, perfectly functioning, air-conditioning and gas/radiators central heating, ensuring that you are always comfortable; never too hot or cold. The flat has a shower bathroom, and also a functioning bathtub in the master bedroom. Although completely refurbished it retains many original features (1920s tiles showing original distribution, original double doors, window shutters (interior and exterior)) creating an atmosphere of a bright modern flat with that special Barcelona charm. Additionally, the apartment intends to be a mix of old and modern, and living- and art-space; therefore the artwork exhibited being very contemporary contrasted against 1920s building, vintage furniture and mixture of lighting pieces. The flat has its own character, given to it by its original architect when built in 1921 and later enhanced when refurbished in 2013. The flat is ideal for couples or families, or group of friends with no indoor party plans. Guest access The apartment comprises of 2 bedrooms; master bedroom connected to a 'gallery' (alike to a closed balcony, closed in stained glass) and the second bedroom in the style of a "chill-out" area, thereafter a lounge (with a very comfortable sofa bed) with two sets of balcony doors leading onto a balcony. The living room/lounge is connected by two 'doors' to the dinning area, long hallway, bathroom, self- contained wardrobe and a small courtyard/patio. The flat has all that one needs for a longer stay, including washing machine, dishwasher, all utensils needed in the kitchen as well as a desk to work at. All bedding (100% cotton) is provided, as well as towels (100% cotton). Nespresso coffee machine, hairdryer, kettle, and iron are also provided. Basics in the kitchen (salt, sugar, milk, coffee, olive oil, vinegar, some spices) are also provided. Other things to note Checkin and check-out times are flexible whenever possible (subject to other guests' arrival or departure on the relevant date). I will try to do my best so that you can check-in and check-out in line with your scheduled travel. Guests need to inform us of exact time of their arrival. Waiting time up to 30-40min is tolerated, however additional waiting time will be charged at Eur20 per hour, after 22:00 waiting time is eur25 per hour, which I trust is reasonable. Late check-in (after 21:30/9:30pm) will be charged upon arrival, at the rate of eur20.00 for check-ins between 21:30/9:30pm and 22:30/10:30pm, eur30.00 for check-ins between 22:20/10:30pm and 23:00/11:30pm, etc. extra eur10.00 for every following hour. I will communicate with guests in relation to check-out time on the date of departure. If we agree that that a late check-out is possible, we will agree specific time of the check-out. If the late check-out is not agreed, standard check out time (11:00 o'clock) applies. IT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED to smoke in the flat, and to play music or cause any noise between 23:00 and 09:30 o'clock. Copy of passports for all guests will be required after the booking, in order to comply with legal requirements in Catalonia (same requirement obliges hotels to take a copy of gusts' passports and provide it to the police within 24 hours of arrival). The flat is steps away from a fashionable and well known amongst locals Granja Petitbo (Passeig Sant Joan 82), a perfect place for breakfast/brunch, lunch or dinner, or just a glass of wine or coffee. Also, it is just a few blocks away from gastronomic institution of Barcelona - Bar Mut (Carer Pau Claris 192) - which has taken Spanish tapas on completely another level. The flat is steps away from Cafe Bristol (Carrer de Roger de Flor 220), a wonderful place serving amazing cakes, salads, juices,etc and is open on Sundays too. I have more recommendations for any interested guests - please see the wooden box on the kitchen table for business cards of my favourite places in Barcelona. Now in addition to the cards in the box, there is a personalised guide; a notebook with selected business cards of restaurants together with my comments about those restaurants (a little about the place, its atmosphere, my recommendations as to what to order, etc.) Also, please do look at the Guide here on Airbnb.
