Alaia P3 - Habitat Apartments

Host was easy to communicate with. Location is awesome. Close enough to things but also not super busy. Very clean. Air conditioner works great.

Photos appear much nicer than actual place. Busted springs in couch, awful sewage smell in hallways and elevator. Place needs some good TLC, fresh paint, fresh caulking etc. Location is very good and beds were comfortable. Took forever to get the unit to cool down when we arrived and one free standing fan didn’t work. Shower head sprays everywhere. Quality of linens and towels are rough and worn. Lighting is very dark. The only windows that go to the outside are in the living and master. The other windows go to the middle of the unit where it smells and is dirty.

The location was perfect. The apartment was great with the exception of the noise, which was noted in previous reviews. Even with earplugs, it was impossible to sleep in the front bedroom next to street. Walls are thin and you hear everything! We did laundry, but the dryer takes forever. They provided a drying rack which was helpful. No kitchen towel was provided so I would bring my own next time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything was perfect. From the initial meeting to get a tour to the location, all the way to check out. When I travel back to Barcelona, I will be staying here again.

We enjoyed having the well equipped kitchen as well as dining out. The living room was comfortable for all 6 of us. Great view windows overlooking the city. Would appreciate additional hooks for hanging our bath towels to dry. Would recommend staying in this apartment.

It was nice to have the metro station right outside our door. Made it easy for getting around. It was a easily walk down to La Ramlas. Lots of little supermarkets and restaurants in the area. Great location.

The property was in an excellent neighborhood! Easy to get around via taxi/metro and close walking distance to many attractions/restaurants etc... The rooms were adequately sized and the house was clean. The noise is intense. The outside noise as well as noise is the building happens throughout the night. Even talking past the noise ordinance hours is questionable because of the paper thin walls. Althought the building was constantly alive with people, we did receive an email that we were to loud and that it was illegal and could be inforced. We traveled with 3 ten year old girls, therefore we didnt realize their talking would get us in trouble (considering the building was alive all night long). So we did squash any nightime activity to respect the home owner. Biggest complaint are the noise issues.

A great apartment in a great location. Lots of great restaurants, shops, taxis and metro. Clean, comfortable and well appointed kitchen. Perfect for our stay!

Located in the heart of Eixample (“the expansion”), we found this apartment to be convenient to all of Barcelona, with sites located 10-30 minutes away by foot or less by Metro. The Provença metro stop is literally outside the door of the building, and there are numerous good restaurants nearby as well as supermercats (small grocery / convenience stores). As for the apartment, it was clean, well-appointed and comfortable for the six of us (Mom & Dad along with 4 young adults). The primary shower takes getting used to as you can easily soak the entire room if you turn the water on with the wand on wall mount. But it wasn’t a big deal! Habitat Apartments owns and/or manages the property, and communications (all virtual, none in person) were consistent, helpful and timely. If we return to Barcelona, we’d prefer to stay in one of the older, more historic areas such as Graçia. But this apartment will serve you well!

Alaia P3 was in a great location, spacious for 6 people and very clean! We would deffo stay again. Minor things were; no wifi for last 3 days (but were quick to send someone out and sort it) some little extra touches would be great like: tea towels/oven glove, more cutlery/glassware and perhaps some basic cleaning supplies and spices (some were provided but not enough for whole weeks stay) and a clothes drying rack so can do some washing. Would rate overall 8/10.
