The property is located in the heart of the city centre. So walkable to and from so many dining options, sites, and shopping. It is not that far from the airport as well.
It is clean and staff were so helpful.
The stay was good but I missed more climatization amenities in the bedroom. Plus it was not clear that bathroom was separated

We really loved staying at this property. The building was beautiful. We loved the high ceilings and the gold painted trim everywhere. Our room was lovely and we loved the shared kitchen and living room spaces that were available. We could step right out our door and be near lots of shops and lots of great restaurants. We parked about a 5 minute walk from our place and only used it when driving to neighboring sights. We will definitely consider staying here again when we return.

Couldn’t find anyone available to check in, apparently there was an office outside that i must’ve walked right by. The place was nice, clean and easy. Solid alternative to a hotel

Overall the experience at Casa Ateneu was a positive one
The only complaint I have is the lack of communication with staff
The code for the entrance was changed in the middle of our stay and we were not told about it until an hour after we had to reach out to the staff
An "included" breakfast never arrived, and when we asked about it the message was never responded to
These aside, good location, well kept and positive experience.

Excellent apartment in great location!
The location is excellent! Can walk to everything, wonderful cafe across the street for morning coffee and pastry. Hosts are outstanding! Printed my boarding pass and scheduled a taxi for my departure. Can’t say enough about the service I received! The apartment was very nice with a comfortable bed and great shower. The building is older but completely updated and I loved the charm of the building with its 20ft ceilings. Would definitely stay again.
