This is what a prime Airbnb experience is! The place was as described, beds and pillows were in great condition, and Damien and his team were superb at supporting us during our stay. The location can’t be beat, especially for a family with kids and elderly people.

The location of the apartment was very appealing to us. The neighborhood is relatively well located, you can get to the sea in a few minutes by scooter or can walk to La Rambla. It has a great bakery, a great meat restaurant and a 'Super Estalvi', all in the same street. Unfortunately, the terrace is for the whole house and not private and the apartment compared to others, rather a bit high priced for what it offers but otherwise everything was to our satisfaction.

A fantastic location in a terrific neighborhood, a super accommodating crew and an apartment that is a perfect home away from home. When I return to Barcelona, I will also be returning to the Picasso Suites. The apartment is sleek and modern with excellent storage space and terrific water pressure. It's the little things that make life special, especially having a screaming great shower before or after a visit to the amazing Barcelona.

This apartment is centrally located in the city which with easy access to both buses and subways. It’s right next-door to a large, wonderful public market with all the food you might need. There are many restaurants very close by. The rooftop space was large and well furnished with nice views of the city. The furnishings are modern and clean but we found the couch and chairs in the living room rather uncomfortable to sit on. Our apartment was on the second floor in the front of the building. The street that the building is on is quite busy and we found it so noisy that we rarely opened the windows. Given the wonderful weather in Barcelona that was disappointing. All in all I would recommend the apartment but would request a high floor or maybe a back apartment.

Damien was a great host, with quick and helpful responses. The apartment was very spacious and clean, with a complementary bottle of Cava to really get you in the vacation mode! The location was just a short 10 minute walk to la Sagrada Familia and the main shopping street, with a metro station very close by. The breakfast at the cafe was perfect too. Would highly recommend :)

This apartment was everything I expected and even better. The space is very Stylish and peaceful easily accommodating for a family of four And I think 6 to 8 people could even be comfortable. There is an amazing Spanish style market next-door with local delicacies . You can pick up local bread cheese jamon and have a picnic on the roof. The location is ideal. The street is a noisy every night but that is expected, just bring ear plugs. The folks at Brock Café downstairs provide a lovely coffee and small sandwich or a pastry so you can start the day the Spanish way. You can’t go wrong here.

Damien's flat was perfect for our group of 3 adults and a baby. We had more than enough space and the apartment was in a great location. Most days we walked to our destinations but on a few occasions it rained so the convenience of the Girona Metro stop less than 5 minutes away made a big difference. There is a large indoor market a few doors down where we were able to pick up fresh fruit and the included breakfast at Bracafe next door was very good. My only tip is that if anyone in your group is a light sleeper they should stay in the back bedroom. The other two bedrooms are street facing so there was a decent bit of traffic noise. Luckily we were so tired from all the walking each day that we had no trouble sleeping. Hope to return!

We stayed as a group of six at one of the Picasso Suites, and were super impressed with the apartment! Barcelona apartments can sometimes be a little funky, so I came in expecting for some weird layout something a tad off. The apt had two full bathrooms (great for our group), and a big kitchen with washer and stove top. Check-in was the easiest I've had, and didn't depend on the exact time to get in. You are also able to get additional services which I thought were a good addition. Free coffee/croissant each morning your stay in the cafe down below. Amazing location, couldn't have asked for more. The AC is situated in the living room, so be sure to keep your bedroom door open so it doesn't get stuffy! Everyone had an amazing time and loved the apt. I will definitely book again!

We stayed at the end of July and it was quite hot. The air conditioning was great in the living area, but the bedrooms were very hot. Not much air circulation. Also, there is a lot of street noise. Barcelona is a busy city, so I'm sure the noise level is like this in every apartment. We were so tired from enjoying the city, it didn't bother us too much. Overall, great spot to stay!

Great location - right next door to Mercat de la Concepció (looks like a local smaller version of the Mercado de La Boqueria but without the crowds and tourists) where you can buy fresh fruits, vegetables, meats and wine. There was also a grocery store across the street and lots of shops and restaurants nearby. We had originally booked Picasso Suites 2.1 but were moved to Picasso Suites 5.4 and was allowed to check in early. Felt like we were staying in a nice hotel - professionally run, easy check-in, furniture and fixtures felt new and were maintained in great shape, towels were white, fluffy and had no stains (unlike other airbnbs we have stayed at). Apartment was also very clean unlike other airbnbs where it is often dusty and not so clean. The roof terrace was a nice place to enjoy some wine and food. It was also nice to have a bottle of cava and water waiting for us in the refrigerator when we arrived. The free continental breakfast was convenient and good. Would definitely stay here again.

We spent 5 great days at the Picasso Suite! The apartment was cleaned, modern, secure and equipped with all the facilities (hair dryer, washing machine, dishwasher,etc.). The roof top is a great space of the house to spend some chill time with friends. Damien and his team were very nice, helpful and available. The apartemnet location was also great! 7 min walk from Passeig de Gràcia, which is one of the main and most beautiful Barcelona avenues, with good facilities around: supermarkets, market, cafes, pharmacies, metro, buses, churches and florist. The breakfast was also included in a nice cafe around the corner, which was perfect! I will pass my best recomendations: you will have the comfort and security of an hotel for a better price for sure.

Spacious and comfortable apartment, for 5 people we were very comfortable and felt good. The location is ideal, we were able to go to La Rembla, Casa Batllo or Sagrada Familia on foot. A daily covered market is at the foot of the building, supermarkets are very close too. Breakfast in the morning at Bracafé was great, the coffee staff very pleasant and welcoming. The only improvement point would be the available utensils and dishes that are right for cooking and lunch or dinner at the apartment for 5 or more. We asked for different extra utensils that we had immediately. We were surprised by the noise but it is true that being in the center is at this price, we each bought our pairs of quiescent balls which are also on the counter of any good pharmacy in Barcelona!

Damien and his team answer to your question before and after making reservation, pretty fast. Nothing more to say, just thank you for the lovely time!

Damien's place was great, as a tourist it was a little further from where we wanted to be, but the place was nice. I recommend the terrace and the cafe below, you get food tokens when you arrive. The beds are not the most comfortable and the washer turned our clothes brown, but all in all we enjoyed our stay. It was nice to be greeted with water and champagne in the fridge. Rent a Vespa when you come and utilize the free parking inside the building. That was great. Thanks Damien!

We arrived with instructions on how to get in the apartment but the keys were not there. We called and someone answered right away and came down within 5 mjnutes, so no problem. Booked their private cab service for double the price as a cab because I had requested carseats for my kids (normally we bring our own) so figured it was worth the extra 30 euros to not have to travel with carseats for my 11 month old and 2.5 year old. When we arrived the driver was there but no carseats for either of my kids. Then he told me they werent necessary. Was extremely frustrated as all they had to do was tell me they did not have any, and i would have brought mine. The wifi was a "hotspot" so only one little area in the living room had wifi. Location next to market was great. Biggest complaint was extremely loud traffic noise at all hours of the night. Was never able to sleep.

Avra

Damien's team was excellent and the apartment was well represented by the pictures. This was our second time in Barcelona. So, we weren't in much need of support. However, we stayed with friends who were new to the city and the team were spectacular with helping settle in our friends before we arrived. The team more than any other Airbnb offer you a great deal of support/ideas for enjoying the city. I strongly recommend their apartment for people who are used to having hotel concierge type support but want a "true living" experience. And for people who don't want/need support, the team is not remotely intrusive.

Damien made us feel extremely welcome with a bottle of Cava already chilling in the fridge on our arrival! Many thanks, it was a lovely surprise! The cafe underneath served us breakfast every morning from 8am with a warm friendly smile. The rooftop terrace is a welcome bonus on a typical sunny day in Barcelona. I would definatley recommend this apartment! We had a fabulous holiday in Barcelona made significantly better by Damian's wonderful apartment and hospitality. Thanks Damien!!

this apartment is comfortable and big enough for 6 persons. it is gut located and you can walk to some sight-seeings. The Restaurant under is very friendly and helpful for visitors. Damien and his crew don't really speak Spanish but they left a very good explained letter (English) with the instructions of the place. Unfortunately we didn't find the right coffee for the machine and at the end of our stay we didn't have a good internet connection but all in all I will recommend them.

About the Host , Damian : Very responsive, efficient and kind. Everything he committed was delivered and fulfilled as spoken Although located in Spain – perfect English = fluent communication to a non-Spanish speakers travelers like us . About the apartment Excellent location – 3 min walk form the Muni ( Girona station) and less than 10 min walk from the passeig de Garcia , nice market in the building nearby . The apartment is very very clean , new towels (white) ,and air conditioned. A red wine treat and water welcomed us . Second floor with an elevator access. The location itself felt very secured, the breakfast was served in the restaurant downstairs with a very welcoming service. All in All was a very pleasant stay for a family of five (all grownups ...) Will stay there next time I am around.

I think Picasso Suits will be the very best place for people seeking comfort of an hotel. The apartment is well decorated and everything is fresh and new. When we first enter the apartment a "woww" sound immediately released after a short silence. We entered the apartment without any problems by using e-safes bearing our apartment keys. Although some of my friends faced some difficulties with the e-key and could not enter the apartment for about 4 hours at night, I slept like a baby in my double bed and 4 pillows :):) The location of the apartment is decent if you are looking for a prominent neighborhood. The below restaurant serves decent food and kindly offers free breakfast thanks to Damien; however if you would like to spend time there without any meals (event though the day before you spend hundreds); they may get nasty. So bear in mind that you should have at least one meal to have a decent service; or be ready to see ugly faces. I strongly recommend Damien's apartments and I hope we will be visiting Picasso Suits once again.

We had a great visit to Barcelona thanks to Damien and his great apartment! The apartment is in a terrific neighborhood that is quiet and clean, and very convenient. There is a restaurant downstairs that served breakfast every morning. They even remembered our orders (for a group of 7) after the 2nd day. There is also a grocery store right next door as well. The apartment has a washing machine and full kitchen and can sleep 8 comfortably. This location is also within walking distance of the subway and the Sangrada Familia, even for my 70 year old parents with bad knees. Damien keeps the apartment sparkling clean and it is beautifully decorated. We couldn't have asked for anything else for our visit to Barcelona. I highly recommend staying with Damien! He is very prompt and really takes great care of his guests.

Rebecca

My three friends and I think that an honest review is the best review so here it goes.... We arrived late in the evening from the Airport but with Damien's great policy of no late arrival fee we were able to collect our key from the very friendly restaurant manager next door who was waiting for us to call in. The entrance was very secure with two sets of card access control doors before reaching the apartment. The apartment itself was lovely and spotlessly clean. We were apparently the second guests to stay so it was very fresh and the building work done to a high standard - especially the bathrooms. The decor is neutral but stylish and the big dining table was used for many fun dinners. We felt privileged to be next door to a fantastic food market where we bought delicious cured ham, watermelons and fresh ciabatta. There is also a huge flower market too which I had to hold back on with only hand luggage! Damien was always willing to give us advice on good beaches to escape to up and down the coast, and the bar on the ground floor always provided us with "breakfast" no matter what time of day it was - they are a real bonus. Invariably with any new apartment there were a few teething problems - the builder walked in unannounced from downstairs to measure up, the boiler broke on a saturday, the internet was not turned on, no bed sheets for the sofa bed and the swipe cards stopped working one evening, etc etc..... this may sound like a nightmare but in each case no matter what time of day we called to ask for help, Damien and his colleagues were there fixing the problem either within minutes or within a few hours. I have never been so impressed with the care taken to ensure that our stay was not disrupted. We were even given flowers and some compensation to make up for the problems (which we reinvested back into the local tapas restaurant!). In addition we were given our own key to the private roof terrace which had spectacular views over the city, and it was the perfect spot for a bit of sunbathing - no one else seemed to use it which was surprising. It was not furnished yet but I imagine once it has some deck chairs and loungers - maybe a jacuzzi?? (hint hint) it will be fabulous for days when you cant face walking to the beech. We hope to come back again next year if it is not already booked up by then! Many thanks for a fab holiday. R,R,R & B
