Urban District Apartments - Barcelona Smart Vintage Lofts and Apartments

Urban District - Vintage Suites is a great compromise between paying for a bunch of hotel services, and the DIY that really makes you feel like you are living in a city. Though our apartment was first listed as a different number in the same neighborhood, we were a bit confused as to where to find it. Upon arriving early and realizing that we should have checked in early, we were not able to reach an employee unless through the Expedia phone number provided. Only through Expedia's good customer service were we able to get through to an employee, though we sent a few emails. We ended up staying at Hotel Olimpica for our first night because we did not know where the actual apartment was, and there was no one getting back to us in time.It was my fault for indicating earlier in the 48 hour check in time requirement that I said that we would check in at 3:30. So arriving in Barcelona in the Poblenou district about 8 hours early and needing rest dictated our need to check in early, or to find a place to rest.This was the only hiccup in our stay at the place. When we finally arrived, the employee who checked us in was friendly and informative. The bed was comfy, the apartment decorated in spartan fashion, which was nice because it reduced distraction and created a simple place to live.The best part was its location. Not only was a rooftop patio available, but we were close to the Bogatell transit station, a short walk from the beach, a large supermarket, and lots more!
