We had a great stay at Sensation Authentic Gràcia. The pre-check-in instructions and how to access the apartment were a bit confusing at first, but once we figured it out, everything went smoothly. I recommend using WhatsApp—it made communication with the apartment team super easy. They were always available and helpful, whether we had questions about a local clinic, an issue with the kettle, cleaning service timing, or arranging a taxi to the airport. Responses were fast and helpful.
The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and thoughtfully decorated. There were four of us, and we never ran out of hot water as long as we took quick showers. The foldable bed in the living room was perfect when my daughter got sick and wanted to sleep separately. We especially loved the balconies—one for relaxing and another for drying clothes after using the washer (no dryer, but it wasn’t a problem).
The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast and light meals.
The best part was the neighborhood—authentic, non-touristy, and full of local charm. Sagrada Família was within walking distance, and Casa Batlló and Park Güell were a short metro or bus ride away. The area felt very safe and had plenty of shops, restaurants, bakeries, and takeout options.
We would definitely stay here again!
