Inside things are no less grand, either. A beautiful spiral staircase leads up to a large and very lively bar, nice, clean rooms and a good time for all.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19164 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19029 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19029 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19028
A typical market is steps away from the apartment as are numerous fine cafes. The city’s best shopping areas are just blocks away. I found an Asian market within blocks for great vegetarian food. The internet place on the street was great since I left my laptop at home, even though the apartment is wired for access. I can't say enough about management, everyone was so nice to me and so helpful. I will not hesitate to stay again when I come to Barcelona and highly recommend pillowapartments to everyone.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19028 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19009 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19009 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19008 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19008 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18991 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18991 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18574
It sleeps 2-4 people comfortably and has very good facilities and is also very secure.

The nearest Metro station is Liceu.

There are numerous places to eat in close proximity to the apartment, all of which are excellent and outstanding value.

Ramon, the owner of the property, was a lovely guy and a real pleasure to do business with.

I fully intend on staying at this apartment again when I next visit Barcelona and cannot think of a reason why I would want to stay anywhere else!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18574 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18071
I think Pillow apartments was really good: the website is decent, they were quite fast answering emails, but the point is that the apartment was better than I expected. I'd been looking for an apartment accommodation for weeks before deciding to book with them.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18071 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/17603 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/17603 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/17263
Another plus: we had a kitchen so if we felt like cooking or having a meal on the private patio, we could. We went through this company www.pillowapartments.com and it was very easy. I highly recommend it.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/17263 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16946
Very nice shopping on the Paseo de Borne, we loved Custo Barcelona, and The Mix is a great cocktail lounge bar nearby!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16946 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16654 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16654 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16500
This place is super central and the best price/quality of any apartment you'll find in Barcelona.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16500 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16438 www.hostelbookers.com for our hostel and a great little service for airport transfers called www.justtransfers.com.

Both were really cheap and for two nights we have accommodation and transfers for just under £60 per person.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/16438
