I can recommend the Super Balmes Guest House in all respects. The location is nearly ideal for a first tourist visit to Barcelona. The guest house is two blocks away from Pl. Catalunya where the AeroBus from the airport arrives. Lots of restaurants, coffee shops, a giant department store, and all the unique shops in the old city are all close by. My only complaint is that the instructions about meeting a staff member for check in made me envision that I was meeting someone on the street to lead me to the apartment on some hidden side street. The "meeting place" as described in communications with the guest house is literally the front door of the apartment building and the staff member you are meeting is INSIDE the apartment and you need to be able to contact them (by phone) to let them know you've arrived at the door so they can buzz you in. Be sure you're equipped to use your phone to call a European phone number to contact the person inside. I ended up standing outside the door for 15 minutes waiting for someone to come, while the staff person was inside waiting for me to call.

Property was very clean and looked after well. We stayed in the private bathroom room, however based on how clean it was I would’ve been happy with the shared bathroom. We were allowed early check in which was greatly appreciated. Super convenient as it’s near multiple transport links and very central. Even with being central it was very quiet and the bed was super comfy! 100% would recommend for anyone to stay here.

The rooms are big and it is located in central area. Clean kitchen and bathroom. it is very safe and very convenient. Only cons is that the insulation is not that great, you can here the outside, cars honking or ambulance. They provided ear plug though.

Lovely hotel, highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay here! Our room was clean, tidy, and spacious — with a lovely terrace. Both the kitchen and bathroom were clean, and effectively stocked so nobody was missing anything. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful! I highly recommend this hotel for those who want to be close to the heart of the city and close to the beach.

When we arrived it was getting dark,starting to rain and we were somewhat lost. The girl had said to call 40 min before & then she told me to call back when arrived. When she buzzed door, three other people pushed in with us. I told the girl but she said it was okay. It wasn’t. One of the persons, a girl pushed into the elevator with us even though we repeatedly said no room. As we got to our floor or before, we were somewhat aggravated and distracted and our cell phone was pick pocketed. As the hotel rep (girl) met us at the elevator we were busy and distracted and didn’t see where the other girl went. Maybe they were working together. The rep could have easily met us at the door and not let these other people in. She could have easily identified the girl in our elevator as not a guest and called her out. This all could have been easily prevented, unless of course she was assisting. The apartment l, itself was very nice and clean, the other guests respectful, the cleaning staff and phone staff ver accommodating. There were 4 rooms and three baths in the apartment. We had one room and one bath with locks on both. With access to kitchen and common room.

The property was clean and well kept, the owner is very lovely and it is definitely worth the money to stay here as it is a 10 min walk to Las Ramblas; being close to the centre and metro stations. It is wonderful and I would stay here again!
