Two person room in vibrant Old Town

Reviews

• Reviewer: Marianna

  Comments: AJ and Jaana were fantastic hosts, and helped us find restaurants and things to do. The space is very cozy, pretty much as pictured. The location is terrific, in the artsy alley-heavy neighborhood of the Born and close to restaurants and transit.

• Reviewer: Ayana

  Comments: AJ and Jaana's apartment was cozy, clean, with it's own style, and in a prime location in the middle of the Born. We stayed in a room at the back of the flat and it was very quiet and comfortable (they have fuzzy blankets, people!). The two shared bathrooms were spotless. I would definitely stay there again if I return to Barcelona.

• Reviewer: Alex

  Comments: The apartment is located i ln the centre of Barcelona in the old town & it is very well connected with public transports & any type of groceries. AJ & H have everything a good host needs to have. Friendly from heart, easy going and with a smile in their face. It is crystal clear that they enjoy what they are doing. We definitely recommend staying at their place. It is a quite cozy apartment with really interested artistic decoration. In the living room you will always find flyers of interested places to see (original as well alternative Barcelona). Guys thank you for making this trip even better !!!

• Reviewer: Mike

  Comments: We had a good stay in Aj's and Jaana's place. They were a nice and friendly couple and in total in the house were two more people. We like the house and it was comfortable as there were two wc. We did not have time to use the kitchen. Jaana helped me a lot to make us feel comfortable and we wanted to thank you for that. There were few thing I did not like about the place. It was quite old and outside the apartment there was some constrcution happening. It was quite messy. The most important part is that there was an issue with the hot water and we tried to have a shower and it was quite unpleasant to try to warm yourself in the shower and suddenly the hot water stoped! We tried to let them know and they said the fixed it but the next day we had again the same issue and we did not feel comfortable to ask this again. We thought that it is pretty obvious for our hosts to fix the issue as we could not have a proper shower again. Overall, we were happy with our stay.

  Comments: Great location- 10-15 mins walk to la rambla and placa de catalunya. less than 5 mins to parc de la ciutadella and arc de triumf. AJ and Jaana were very friendly and helpful! Would definitely recommend!

• Reviewer: Chiara

  Comments: We have a great time at Aj and Jaana's place. The position is very good, central but in a small road and for that quiet. They are two lovely people, helpful and welcoming, they can give you company but also discretion. We felt comfortable and relaxed.

• Reviewer: Enrico

  Comments: La definirei essenziale, non di lusso, ma pulita. La cortesia e la precisione dell'Host è stupenda. Posizione ottima a 500 dall'arco di trionfo. 15 minuti a piedi dalla Ramblas e 20 minuti da Barcelloneta. Comodissima

• Reviewer: Michał

  Comments: Great location. We almost did not use a public transport. Place is clean. Hosts are nice. Five stars from me

• Reviewer: Othman

  Comments: Super séjour chez AJ et Jaana. Un accueil chaleureux et des conseils sur la ville et des choses à faire ! Aj et Jaana sont à l'écoute et toujours souriants. La décoration de l'appartement est très stylée à l'image du quartier "El Born". L'appartement est propre et central (métro Jaume I à 5 min à pieds/ La Rambla à environ 10-15 min à pied et la Barceloneta à une vingtaine de minutes à pied.) Meilleur rapport qualité-prix qu'on puisse trouver. Best deal in the city ! Ps: Je conseille vivement le petit restaurant local "Bo de B"

  Comments: Great stay! Highly recommend Aj and his lovely apartment. Very comfortable room, we stayed in the cabin. Loved the location as it is close to metro stations and common tourist attractions. And it's so nice to have such a welcoming and kind host with local knowledge. Thank you!

• Reviewer: Emmie

  Comments: Our stay at Aj's and Jaana's place was absolutely great. Their cozy apartment is located in a quiet alley, in the Barri Gotic district, really close to the cathedral of Barcelona. Walking distance to all of the tourist sights, bus terminal, the park, bars and good restaurants etc. Our room was nicely furnished with suggestions from the sea, well shaded and quiet at night. In the apartment you have a kitchen you can use at your own service, a common room you can hang out in as much as you'd like too and all in all, a chilled out atmosphere in the whole place. Aj and Jaana are two absolutely beautiful and kind people that will help you out with any questions that you may have. Thank you guys for the week, we had a really good time and we'd love to stay with you next time we're in Barcelona!

• Reviewer: Kerry

  Comments: Great location, can walk everywhere. Friendly hosts, clean, modern bathroom. Would definitely stay there again

• Reviewer: Deepesh

  Comments: AJ and Jaana were really good hosts. The place was exactly as advertised. They were really helpful in their favorite suggesting places. The house is neat and the room is really cozy with really nice antique photos and items. The major plus for their property is it's brilliant location. Really close to the Gothic quarter, Las ramblas and barceloneta and all the touristy places in the center of the city. That said their locality is the actual center and unexplored. Really good places to eat and drink around the place. I would definitely stay here if we go to Barcelona again for sure

• Reviewer: Ricardo

  Comments: There house was the perfect place to stay! Walking distance to everything that you wanna do! Plus they gave us good advice for things to see and do! We would reccomond there place. It is close to lots of bars and good places to eat! We would love to come again if they would have us!!

• Reviewer: Martine

  Comments: Très bien,disponibilité et flexibilité sur les horaires Hôtes discrets. Petit bémol il manque une petite table et des chaises si on veut prendre un repas ou le petit déjeuner.

• Reviewer: Kisu

  Comments: Position actual searching Although there is no information sign that the entrance buzzer informs the accommodation facility, although the gentleness and cleanliness of the host is old, it is well-arranged and clean and shining If you want a clean and clean Barcelona hostel, book this accommodation right away.

• Reviewer: Marjukka

  Comments: A great place to stay in the heart of cozy and vibrant El Born. AJ and Jaana were super sympathetic hosts, welcoming us and helping out in everything. The house is super cozy and has everything you need for your stay. There are so many great places to eat and drink just around the corner, you will not get bored in the neighbourhood. Thank you guys!

• Reviewer: Luc

  Comments: We had a fantastic stay! AJ and Saana are great hosts and helped us to find the best places to go to in the area. We've been at great places where we never would have ended up on our own. The appartment is a place of creativity, on a perfect location in the city. Everything was clean and all the facilities are good. We would reccomend a stay at AJ and Jaana to everyone! Thanks guys! :)

• Reviewer: Amélie

  Comments: Agréable séjour. Très propre, les hôtes sont adorables, prévenants. Je recommande cet hébergement

• Reviewer: Sarah And Carlos

  Comments: We loved staying with AJ and Jaana.  They were very welcoming and gave us some great recommendations for sights to see, places to eat or take a coffee, and directions to get us on our way. Their place is perfectly located to explore the city on foot and also very near to public transportation. The neighborhood, building, and apartment all have lots of character.  AJ and Jaana are clearly experienced hosts as everything was very well organized. They were available whenever needed either in person or via messaging. They have two guest rooms and despite a full house, we never had to wait to use anything, were never bothered by noise, and had plenty of privacy. We had full use of the kitchen to make meals (with ingredients from the nearby Mercat de Santa Caterina) and were able to use their washer and hang our laundry out to dry. Our stay with them in El Born was an ideal "Benvinguts a Barcelona!"

• Reviewer: Jessica

  Comments: Loveliest people ever. So genuine and nice. The room is huge and in a great central place. They happily shared their cereal and coffee with us which was much appreciated. The area is great where the appartments is located-around the so born cultural area in walking distance to everything. Lovely cafes and great wine bars just a few footsteps away yet not in the super touristy area! Loved it! Highly recommended

• Reviewer: Raissa

  Comments: Aj is a kind and gracious host. Their apartment is unique and has lots of character. It's very well thought out and we loved our stay here! The apartment is in a great neighborhood for shopping and eating, walking distance from pretty much everything in Barcelona. Aj was great about giving us suggestions. We wish we could've stayed longer!

• Reviewer: Phil

  Comments: AJ's place is in a great location and AJ & Jaana are wonderful hosts. The public areas are a little tight, but the bedrooms are large. The bathroom & shower are quite modern. I recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience the vibe of Barcelona.

  Comments: Localization is perfect. Great place for nice weekend in Barcelona.

• Reviewer: Bobae

  Comments: What a great place to stay in Barcelona. It is located in El Borne district which has a lot of nice bars, reststaurant, and sightseeing places. Outside of bnb seems quite old, but it has cosy bed room, clean and modern bathroom. It is okay to do laundry, and use kitchhen at all. Aj & Jaana are great host. I hope i can stay this place again.

• Reviewer: Katie

  Comments: What great hosts in an absolutely fantastic home! A very cute apartment with a nice kitchen and 1 & 1/2 bathrooms. The room was fairly big and they gave us a fan for when it got too hot. It was walking distance from pretty much everything and near public transportation as well. They were so wonderful, from giving us the best places to eat and the best museums in the area to staying up until 1am to help us get settled. 100% recommend!

• Reviewer: Lowri

  Comments: Absolutely amazing apartment, in a great location that is not too crowded nor too quiet. It was perfect for us as it was situated in a great district of the city that offered a wide variety of things to do and see that we wouldn't have done otherwise. The apartment was very suited to our taste with loads of cool trinkets around the flat, making the stay even more enjoyable. Very friendly environment and always available when we needed to ask questions! Would 100% return.

• Reviewer: Merissa

  Comments: AJ and Sian were great hosts! They truly accommodated us when or flight was delayed passed midnight! Their apartment was super cozy and a great home base for exploring Barcelona. It's so close to many interesting quartiers that we didn't even use public transportation while we were there! We had an amazing time in Barcelona thanks so Aj and Sian!

• Reviewer: Emilia

  Comments: The place was very close to everything. About a 10/15 minute walk from the beach and sites you want to see. It's got a lovely shared bathroom, and kitchen with all the utensils you need. Perfect for a short stay. The residents were so helpful and easy to talk to. Would recommend. Thanks Aj and Jaana!

• Reviewer: Johanna

  Comments: Amazing!

• Reviewer: Joanne

  Comments: Easy enough to find and tucked away so not too noisy, just off the square. We jumped in a cab for ease from Catalunya Sq. Fantastic location and everything you need to enjoy yours stay. Near Cathedral and Gothic Quarter. Apartment is super cool. Authentic and Quirky! Loved it. Was warm at night but they had a fan in the room. Close to Picasso museum and some yummy places to eat and have a drink. Arc de Triomph is not far (5min) and is a lovely short walk to the Citudelle Parc. From there you have the Zoo and buses that connect to the rest of Barcelona if you don't want to walk. AJ was in communication the whole time and settled us in with ease. Others were staying g but we did not hear or see them during our stay. Felt private even though a shared apartment. Would definitely recommend as a base for a short visit to Barcelona if you would rather experience something other than a hotel.

• Reviewer: Gerardo

  Comments: AJ ha sido un excelente anfitrión, todo muy limpio y con lo necesario para estar cómodos y en privacidad. La ubicación es excelente para quien se quiere mover por el Born y también para salir a todos lados ya que el metro está a solo 2 minutos. Muy recomendable. AJ y su pareja son muy cálidos y dispuestos a ayudar. Nos vemos en la próxima visita a BCN.

• Reviewer: Robert

  Comments: Our stay at AJ's apartment was really nice, so to sum up a few things: The check-in was very easy, we just had a little bit of contact before and told them when we are going to arrive, absolutely no problems. The hosts are really easy going and nice people, AJ even helped us to find an own apartment for a semester. (He also has a bar, you've got to check it out if you go there!) Everything was clean and ready when we arrived. And the location is perfect, close to the beach & still very central, ideal for relaxing at the beach or discovering the city. So overall, I can only recommend this place to everyone looking for a short-term stay in Barcelona, thanks for everything AJ and Jana! :)

• Reviewer: Lamaro

  Comments: For our first time in Barcelona it was a comfortable place to come to after a long day of walking and exploring. The best thing about it was that it was close to an active area, so we didn’t have to venture too far for great food, shopping or night life. Very informative host who were available if you needed a good tip of where to go and what to do!

  Comments: AJ and Jaana's apartment is thoughtfully furnished, clean an equipped with everything you might need. It is perfectly situated in the heart of El Born, close to the beach, the Barrio gótico and the metrostation. The room is huge, clean, with an extra lock on the door and exactly as it is in the pictures. So is the bathroom, which has an awesome shower. We felt very welcome, both were perfect hosts and would come back to stay at their apartment anytime!:) AJ und Jaana waren perfekte Gastgeber. Die Wohnung ist toll eingerichtet, sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, was das Herz begehrt. Die Lage im Herzen von El Born, nicht weit vom Strand, dem Barrio gótico und der Metrostation ist optimal. Der Raum ist groß, sehr sauber und mit einem extra Schloss an der Tür; genauso wie das Badezimmer mit einer wunderbaren Dusche. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und würden jederzeit wieder bei den beiden übernachten:)

• Reviewer: Chelsea

  Comments: Aj’s place was an awesome little spot on a secluded street right in the center of the amazing neighborhood of El Born. Easily walkable to any part of the city that you’d like to get to know. It’s in a very hip area that is super close to a very local bar (literally right around the corner and can get quite loud at night if you sleep with the window open — but also quite charming), and amazing little shops where you can find the coolest Barcelona styles. As for the actual accommodations, the space is super quaint and very charming. It’s a really great way to feel like you’re truly living in the city of Barcelona! The space of the room is sufficient for 2 people (though I was only 1!), and you have more than enough privacy when you need it. Overall, would recommend. AJ was also super quick to respond to any questions and recommendations. A must stay in my opinion!

• Reviewer: Jaelynn

  Comments: I cannot recommend Aj's place enough. It's in a very cool area of Barcelona, the space itself fun and artsy, and they offer great amenities and nice facilities. Aj was also a fantastic host. He gave us great recommendations and checked in on us even though we were only there for a couple days. He clearly explained everything and made us feel very comfortable. Strongly recommend!

• Reviewer: Loes

  Comments: The house of AJ is in a wonderful area of Barcelona (El born). Everything is in walking distance and otherwise you can get on the metro. Barcelona stole our hearts, such a beautiful city. So much to see. We ll come back for sure.

• Reviewer: Signe

  Comments: Amazing location! In the center of old town stone's throw from awesome museums, bars, clubs - you can walk to most venue within minutes. Due to the arthictecture of the gotchix quarter the rooms are dark (sunlight can't get it) which made it hard for me personally to wake up, but this is subjective. It was cool to experience ancient architecture from within, though. We were two friends rather than a couple so not being able to have two keys, even after having asked for it, made things trickier. Still, the two tiny ailments don't overshadow how well located this is, and AJ is a great host of a unique home. Would recommend!

• Reviewer: Kendall

No me queda más que agradecerle a Aj, y sin duda lo recomiendo y volvería sin pensarlo dos veces, me encanto alojarme en su piso.

• Reviewer: Amber

  Comments: Lovely flat in El Born, close to the Gothic Quarter. Aj recommended we take the aerobus from the airport, which was very seamless. The flat is only about a 10 minute walk from the bus stop. Aj was at work when we arrived, but he communicated with us ahead of time that his friend would be greeting us at the flat. Our arrival was stress-free thanks to Aj's clear communication. The area, in my opinion, is a little less touristy than other areas of the city we saw. Lots of great tapas bars and cafes. Even with our poor Spanish, everyone in the area was so friendly and welcoming. The flat itself is quite spacious with a lot of Spanish charm. We had plenty of space in our bedroom to unpack our suitcases and settle in. The bathrooms are very nice and clean. They also look like they've been recently updated. Overall very nice place, but we did not spend very much time there as the area has so much to see! Would definitely stay again on my next trip!

  Comments: Thanks AJ, the location was great. El born is such a nice area where you can experience Barcelona and get away from the busy centre. We really appreciate how quick you solved our lost key situation and loved Two Schmucks! The apartment was perfect for two young travelers who spend most of the day exploring the city. Good luck with everything!

• Reviewer: Marissa

  Comments: If you are looking for something fancy and luxurious, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for a truly authentic Spanish flat in a location where everything is in walking distance, then this place is for you. We were a touch earlier than the time we originally told Aj and Sam, but no worries, Sam rushed right over, and let us drop our bags to go explore while they finished up the final touches! The place had everything we needed, and the location was amazing. we were able to get to just about everything on foot. It is also right next to some great restaurants, and there is a gelato place just a stones throw away! I would definitely stay here again.

  Comments: Staying here was something unbelievable. It is located almost in the centre of the city, just a few minutes from the main street, La Rambla. Aj with Sam will take care of your comfort during your stay there. The apartment was absolutely nice, totally clean and perfectly cozy! The notes on the walls help you not to forget about your keys and if you do not know where the right trash bin is, just look at the walls again, the nearest writing will guide you. For me it was just a lovely weekend in Barcelona. I recommend this for everyone who requires perfect accommodation with no worries.

• Reviewer: Derek

  Comments: A great space to stay in a very popular part of town! The hosts were great - Sam met us at the door to give us a tour of the place and provide tips on some of the local hotspots. AJ sent us very detailed directions prior to our arrival that made the apartment very easy to find. Highly recommended!

• Reviewer: Jonathan

  Comments: DAYS: 4 PROS: location - El Born, Barcelona (Close to bars, La Rambla, Zoo, Park, Beach, Santa Caterina Market, Gothic Quarter). There is a bike rental for tourists nearby (Rabbit Bike Born) in case you get tired of walking around town and destinations are far to see = like The Magic Fountain (40 min walk vs. 14 min bike). CONS: I can’t think of one, but if I had to post one it would be waiting on the other guest to finish up with shower – and that’s stretching it. I could have paid for a private room or loft with and shower for an additional fee elsewhere, but did not feel that was needed. Sam met us to at a café in front of the flat to show us in and explain a few things as far as use of the keys, wifi, kitchen, bathroom, common area, and any other useful information – to include recommended hot spots. The wife and I visited during the first week of October and temperatures were nice, so having the room window open was comfortable for both of us and if needed there was a fan that I used. There are noises echoing thru the narrow streets throughout the night/day (depending on your room) outside of the window from people walking in the streets, kids going to school, dogs barking, luggage being rolled on cobble stone, smell of cigarettes, but I have no complaints as I had no troubles sleeping and feel it is all part of being on vacation in another country and part of living in Spain.

  Comments: Good amount of space in the Private room, clean and in a perfect location for restaurants, bars and exploring the city. Metro is about a 5 minute walk away and makes the rest of the city very accessible. Great place to stay for a great value.

  Comments: It’s a normal place to stay for 1 or 2 nights. Very noisy at night from the outside. We didn’t sleep

  Comments: It felt like being at home in Aj‘shouse. The flat is next to subway station Jaume. It lasts about 15 minutes from his house with subway and several meters of walking to come to city center. All around his house you can find a lot of concept stores, bars and shops. They have a lovely choice of almost everything you’re looking for. On the main street there’s a coffee shop where you can buy coffee- even very early in the morning. That opportunity really made my day! The area was very safe for me. I never felt being in danger - even when walking alone on the street in the evening. In fact, you really have to take care of your belongings. Pickpockets are everywhere. One of them grabbed my friend's backpack and I stood next to her. They are so clever that I did not even notice. However, a pedestrian has warned and the thief ran away. In any case, carefulness is well-advised. Take your belongings in front of your body and maybe put some extra money somewhere else in case a pickpocket could make it! This advise should be considered everywhere on Barcelona.

  Comments: An absolutely awesome, artsy place in the Old Town, everything was as per described. Great communication, location was perfect and let's be honest, AJ's place has sooo many 5 stars already so why would you not stay! thanks AJ for everything and until next time!

  Comments: We really liked the cabin room - it was large and inviting. Sam showed my friend round and left us to it. We didn’t get to meet AJ during our stay but communication was quick if we needed anything. It feels like an air hostel rather than bnb as others guests were in and out but you can find what you need from notes on the walls. The gothic quarter is arty and unusual and at night it gets noisy, the neighbours above us also had a party (but I don’t think this happens every weekend.) but bring ear plugs just incase. Beds are basic but we slept cozy and well (apart from Party night) - we were very comfy. Sam sent us recommendations for places to eat and drink and the flat is more geared up towards doing this as pots, pans, utensils and kitchen equipment are sparse. If you are English - there’s no kettle or toaster but lots of places to eat close by and don’t drink the tap water in Barcelona! We felt safe and and had mostly everything we needed for a good stay.

  Comments: Outstanding location, the hosts are nice. It might be really noisy at night and the room we stayed in felt really worn down. Also windows we had were facing narrow streets, concrete walls or garbage bins. Kitchen and bathroom are nice. Good value over all, if you want to stay at the old city for friendly price.

  Comments: We had a great stay at Aj's place. He and his friend were nice to us. The room was perfect for two of us. We loved the apartment. It is also on a walking distance from the train station and very convenient for exploring the city.

  Comments: Really nice area !

• Reviewer: Scott

  Comments: We’re always looking to stay in unique places when we visit a new city that’s also comfortable, clean and easy-going. AJ and his place were exactly that! He was helpful, available and easy to talk to. His place was really clean and comfortable and he gave us extensive lists of good food and drink places after chatting with us about what we liked. This place is more definitely worth the price. The street it’s on is magical and the neighborhood was overflowing with charming winding streets and good food/drinks. AJ was exactly the trustworthy and easy-going kind of person you hope for when you rent a room in someone’s home! Highly recommend AJ and his place!!
