"I was originally looking for a hotel with a suite for 4 people and just happened upon your website by chance. I had not heard of your company but liked the look of your accommodation and, although a little apprehensive about paying a deposit to a company that was unknown to me, I was encouraged by the customer comments. I can certainly say that I would use your company again and I have already recommended it to others. The whole process was simple, Manjeeta was very helpful despite us arriving earlier than the standard check-in time, the apartment was very spacious, clean and ideally located and I was very impressed with the comprehensive information that was provided prior to the trip. Thank you very much to everyone involved."
...Keely, United Kingdom, May 2007.
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Penthouse de Catalunya #1 and found everything to be exactly as described. It is a wonderful place to stay and we all agreed we would stay there again in a group or with our families! May I take this opportunity to thank Manjeeta for her patience (We couldn't find it.... and rang her several times... and we were right outside it) and excellent manner. She is a very friendly,efficient,and warm person. A wonderful "face" to Loving Barcelona"! I have been to Barcelona on at least 7 other occasions and would like to thank you for making this visit a "stand-out" occasion. Loving Barcelona is now in my "favourites" for Holidays."

...Orla, Ireland, February 2006.
"Plenty of space for the eight of us. On our first day we were able to sit out on the terrace in the warm December sun, recovering from our early flights. The double sofa-bed was easy to set up and the other sofa was large and comfortable enough for another person to use as a bed. I would be happy to rent it next time I bring a large group to Barcelona."
...David, United Kingdom, December 2005.
"More than Satisfactory, Manjeeta our greeter was lovely, we loved the apartment and location, and Barcelona. We would definitely consider booking with Loving Barcelona again and recommending it to friends and family - it was very easy and a very friendly service.

...Pamela, United States, July 2005.
"Hear is some feedback as requested - hope it is useful. I found your website and booking process excellent, easy to follow, simple to use. i thought the range of photos accompanying each appartment listed was very helpful and the descriptiond extensive - both of which made selecting the most suitable accomodation easier. Having never been to Barcelona before we were deligted with the xceptional location of this apartment for shopping and enjoying the beach - accessing public transport and sightseeing tours - it really could not have been better based. Checking in process was simple and effective -great advice and guidance for travelling from airport - eased that 'HOW DO WE GET THERE' feeling. Manjeeta wasvery helpful with last minute directions to the apartment door from the square. She was pleasant, welcoming, informative and knowlegable about the area. Thanks Manjeeta! It was also great to get 5 sets of keys so we could go our separate ways and all still get back in! Bathrooms were spotless and really fresh smelling - important to five girls! Roof top terrace was real bonus, quite private and not overlooked at all. Loads of towels for our three day stay -thanks. Didn't use kitchen facities at all apart from fridge for LOTS of water as it was really warm so unable to comment on ease of use of these appliances. Bedroom air con was wonderful and dead easy to operate - cooled rooms in minutes. Window shutters good idea also to keep heat out - meant you could keep window open and still feel very secure. I have already recommended your site to loads of people and have been searching it again for possible accomodation for a short break later in the year! Shopping wise the very nearby El Corte Ingles has great variety, Las Ramblas has tourist tatt galore(be ready to bartar for best price it varies greatly from one shop to the next), the large street between the apartment and las ramblas - portal de l'angel -or something along those lines - is great for ladies clothes and shoe shopping with a very cheap Zara. I would recommend the red and blue tourist bus routes if you have time - they do all the major sites in about 2 hrs each. The beachfront is beautiful but i would recommend that when selecting a beach you go as far along as you can as the sand gets better / finer the futher along you go and they are generally less crowded too (altough none were overcrowded). There is a nudest / naturist beach at the end so if that not your scene don't go right to the end of the beach front. Thanks to johnny and Loving Barcelona team for there input into a great few days."
...Frances, United Kingdom, July 2005.
"We had a fantastic stay - the apartment was great and will definitely be booking with you again next year."
...Elizabeth, United Kingdom, June 2005.
"We really enjoyed our stay in Barcelona! The apartment, with the terraceon the roof, did make the stay extra nice!
"
...Berit, Norway, May 2005.
"We had a fantastic time in Barcelona, the apartment was absolutely superb, easily big enough for 3 couples and the huge terrace is just awesome for those hot summer afternoons when you can relax with a chilled beer / glass of cava after a hard days sightseeing. The El Corte Ingles store directly over the road has all the provisions you will ever need (and some you won't!) and the airport bus drops you 50 metres from your front door. We would definitely stay in this apartment again - indeed we may well do so next year!
"
...Jamie, United Kingdom, May 2005.
" Everything about the appartment was excellent. My friends were delighted about position , contents, furnishings etc. We would all recommend your excellent service and appartment to our friends. Thanks."
...Yvonne, United Kingdom, March 2005.
"Thank you, once more. We'll come back!"
