“Terrible apartment with cockroaches”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Ishaan319 on 25/07/2014

We rented apartment in Barcelona with good reviews. Flat had weird smell when we entered. First I thought it was air refreshener, but then noticed that airfresheners were put to apartment to hide mold. The walls and wall were full of mold. We has cockroaches. We were forced to book a hotel and hot refunded only partly. I recommed to avoid this company to ensure nice and relaxing holiday!

“Genesis apartment”

★★★★★

written by Frederick77 on 28/02/2012

Nice apartment in a nice location, I got a last minute offer and cost me around 100 Eur per night, for 3 persons. All the bedrooms were very spacious. The only problem was that one bathroom didn't have shower.

“living eixample vacation”

★★★★★

written by on 04/11/2011

We used the gobcn apartment serviced last month(living eixample flat) and this is our feedback: Cheap and cool apartment for families, clean . The location is quiet and safe and close to convenience stores it made it easy to purchase water. Owner contacts were accomodating and easily available to answer questions. The only bad thing, no internet wifi only USB internet (we could not use it with our mac) and the kitchen was very small. Would definitely use your services again.

“lovely say in barcelona”

★★★★☆

written by suspel27 on 17/10/2011

The apartment genesis ramblas, was cosy and clean, modern with everything that we would need for our stay. Your contact person was so helpful and kind and went out of her way to answer any questions we had and to find us a taxi for our return jouney (which we greatly appreciated) All of us would have no hesitaion in returning to your beautiful city in the futue and would have no hesitation in contacting your company should we require accomodation. Thank you again for contributing to a lovely holiday for us.

“Central Ramblas a poor apartment for up to 14 people”

★★☆☆☆

written by glatt on 11/10/2011

I wrote a detailed review but gobn apartments don't show it on the feedback side. there are 4 older reviews from 2008 with very positive feedbacks. contact person and location were good but the apartment is poor. they put many beds in it in order to hoste larger groups (and charge per person) to maximize profit. but the kitchen is very small, the living room and the eating corner have no window to the outside and are not made for more than 8 persons. also the streetside rooms are noicy during night and not at all "really quiet" as stated. It looked much better than it really was. A big disappointment. not a comfortable place to spend a holliday!

“cozy apartment in Barcelona”

★★★★★

written by nicolan on 14/07/2011

We visited Barcelona few days ago, and stayed at the apartment Eixample Delight booked with gobcn, great location convenient for walking into city centre and taking the Metro. At back of apartment block, so very quiet, and the air conditioning was lovely. Excellent service, could use again. We had a brilliant stay (2 adults, 2 teenage boys).

“gobcn good experience”

★★★★★

written by andyby on 09/06/2011

We are satisfied with our stay at Rainbow apartment. I wish the bathroom was bigger, because the rest of the apartment is spacious. The location was perfect for us, because some of us had to go to Casteldefels almost every day, and the others went to the town, visiting the tourist attractions... The Paralel station is just a few minutes from the apartment. I would recommend the apartment and the gobcn staff.

“Gothiq_terrace Born Gobcn Barcelona”

★☆☆☆☆

written by selmalagerlof on 01/06/2011

We stayed at the Gothiq Terrace for 8 days. We had chosen this apartment for its great location (which was in fact very pleasant), and because the pictures we found on the web led us to believe the atmosphere in the rental would be great. These pictures are not true to reality. They let us think we were renting a small, bright, very clean and well-appointed apartment. Reality was another matter! This apartment is unattractive and seriously needs cleaning and maintenance. There were abundant signs of mould, mildew and corrosion in the bathroom and the kitchen, the walls are streaked with stains and there was a persistent and bothersome odour emanating from the plumbing. This is badly “hidden” by 5 air fresheners that give off their own strongly unpleasant perfume… The dishes were dirty and greasy, there were coffee stains from the previous renter in the cups… We had only one corroded saucepan and one damaged (and unusable) Teflon pan to cook with, and no salt (0.80 euro for a kilo…) and pepper shakers. Dusty blinds, an old clock frozen at 7:50 (time has apparently stopped at Carrer Del Cortines…) with no spare batteries, old and dingy towels, absolutely no dinner towels, dirty placemats, no cleaning products (not even a bottle of dish soap!) a sticky freezer, a broken bathroom door handle (careful you don’t get stuck in there!), towel racks barely hanging on, dusty rods and sub-par bedding. We were extremely disappointed and would have run away (if we could have… ), but not as fast as our contact person who disappeared as soon as we handed over the money! We felt swindled and this apartment certainly was not worth the price we paid! 100 euros per night. We sent our comments to Gobcn and to the owner of the appartment, we never received and answer back.

“I was very pleased by gobcn apartments services,...”

★★★★★

written by tlarson on 02/02/2011

I was very pleased by gobcn apartments services, starting from the informations about the apartments, reservation making, getting in touch with the people there, promtly resolving problems that occured during our stay there.
It was the first time I tried this kind of tourism and the impressions are very good: it is fast, it is easy and one can trust in the informations provided.
It was a wonderful vacation in Barcelona and I will try it again.

“Das Apartment war sch n (Dusche m sste repariert...”

★★★☆☆

written by Carlitto on 28/01/2011

Das Apartment war sch n (Dusche m sste repariert werden) gut gelegen und f r einen Barcelonaaufenthalt sehr gut. Leider hatten wir Probleme mit dem Safe, lie sich nicht mehr ffnen bei Abreise. Wir bekamen relativ schnell die Nachricht, das Geld (250 ' ) wurde im Safe gefunden wird uns durch die Agentur berwiesen. Die Agentur reagierte trotz vieler Nachfragen erst ca. 5 Monate sp ter, berwies nur 170 ' (80 wurde f r Safe einbehalten), obwohl wir die Best tigung hatten, dass das Problem nicht durch uns verschuldet war. Habe keine Lust mit dem Anwalt zu agieren, aber es hat im Nachhinein unseren Aufenthalt in Barcelona doch ins negative Licht ger ckt.

“Be sure, after you've paid money, in case of any...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 09/01/2011

Be sure, after you've paid money, in case of any problem with your appartments, you will never find this agency! We have booked the apartment at GOBCN APARTMENTS for a week. We have paid reservation fee in advance for the agency, and the rest of money directly to the owner during check-in. After the first night we found bedbugs in the apartment, and one of us was strongly bitten by these insects. We asked the owner and the agency to provide another apartment with the same price, or give back the money. They proposed us to stay in the same apartment after the disinfection. We spent all day discussing the situation with the owner in this apartment and with the agency by phone. During this time they have changed the position and blamed us that the insects came with our luggage! Finally we made the appointment in their office. When we had come at the office nobody was there and the door was closed. From this moment they stopped to answer by phone and e-mail. When we returned in the apartment the door of one room was sealed after desinfection and we were forced moved in the hotel. Some days ago we hoped to find somebody in this apartment, but when we had come we found the lock changed. It's unbelievable that the official touristic agency in European country could run a business in that way!

We rented an apartment with my family,the decoration, location and cleanliness was really good. Would certainly recommend it to any of my family and friends. Gobcn was very helpful during my booking process.
What a super way to spend time in Barcelona.

We have just returned from our stay in Barcelona, We rented an apartmemnt in Paseo montjuich using gobcn. The apartment was located in very nice area close to a park and enjoyed our stay.

After 3 days we lost the set of keys provided by gobcn, and in less that one hour we were provided with another one.

I'd like to mention how friendly was the service diring or stay

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 01/06/2010

We stayed in the Aurora Apt from 26th-31st May, which we booked from GoBCN. It was in a great location and was a nice little apartment with everything we needed. However,on arrival we noticed that the back door did not lock and the owner (Diana) told us she would send someone to fix it the following day. She did not send someone and did not bother contacting us so I called her and she just said it was too expensive to have someone fix it until the following week. She also told us that we would not be responsible if our possessions were stolen as a results of the broken lock.She did not apologise or offer another apartment or any alternative. So we had to barricade the door with the sofa whenever we left and hoped that our possessions were not stolen while we were gone. No apology was offered when we checked out, the owner just inspected everything in case we had damaged/stolen anything (we had not) and barely bothered to say goodbye. It was very disappointing to be treated like this as we had a fantastic time in Barcelona.

“We rented an apartment in the Barrio Gotico in...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 27/11/2009

We rented an apartment in the Barrio Gotico in Barcelona through GOBCN. The room was very rundown and crawling with cockroaches. We didn't even want to put our bags down, let alone stay there. They told us they knew there were cockroaches but didn't know it was that bad. They said they would do their best to find us another place to stay but we never heard from them again. No refund on the deposit either. We found a great 3 star hotel, Hotel Catalonia Princess, just down the street and it was cheaper too.
