Overall Ratings & Reviews Factory Suites Barcelona

Was great thank you!

We were pleasantly surprised by our stay - close to primary locations but out of the way enough that it was quiet and peaceful. We thoroughly enjoyed having aircon during the heatwave, as well as the brekky options (we bought our own GF bread).

The only difficulty was that the door to get into the apartment often got stuck, and the key wouldn’t open it up. Many people including myself either needed help to get our keys out of the door lock, or had to have someone open the door for us because it was jammed from the other side. Please fix it!

My stayed at Factory Suites was excellent, the room was spacious, spotless, and well maintained. Check in and check out experience was smooth. I had a fantastic experience, bed was comfortable I had good sleep. Staff very helpful and friendly. This place is very convenient, walkable to all major attractions. I would definitely recommend this place.

Amazing!

If you want to get the Barcelona local living style you should live here. Very special experience. I enjoyed it.

Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Decorated adorably and the beds were comfortable ❤️

I told you I’d give you 5 stars thanks to the lovely cleaner with red hair. Here it is

Great location, unique vibe to the apartment

We paid a lot for a room in this property that featured a private bathroom. We left after 10 minutes upon realizing The pictures are deceiving. There is a bathroom down the hall that is shared with all rooms. I have a complaint into Expedia regarding the misrepresentation and am hoping to be refunded. DO NOT Fall for their scam.

Pictures of the room we stayed in didn’t match the reality. Staff were helpful and friendly. Should be listed as a hostel rather than a hotel. Cleaner did a very good job

Check-in was a nightmare because they don't always have someone at the B&B so it took over 1 hour for someone to come and let us in. The room has a "private" but not attached bathroom, in other words you have to walk down the hallway to the bathroom which is assigned to your room. Breakfast was essentially a few items left in the fridge (also assigned to each room) including some deli meat, yogurt, hard boiled eggs and bread. They also had a coffee machine, cookies and pastries in the common kitchen area available at all times. We only stayed here one night since we had an overnight layover through Barcelona so we dealt with the dorm-like bathroom situation but couldn't have done it for a longer stay.

The property is in bad condition. The pictures on the website are very misleading. There are broken tiles all over the room you can’t walk barefoot it is dangerous. I cut my foot on one of the broken tiles. It is extremely over priced for what is offered. The breakfast provided had rotten tomatoes. If you are looking for a hostel at the price of a hotel then this is for you.

I liked the fact that it was close to some areas of interest. I feel this type of rooms are more for like teenagers. It was awfully small and felt more like a prison.

We were disappointed. The room we got was not AT ALL like the photos on Expedia or the Factory website. We got a dark box that measured 2m by 4m, sparsely furnished, with a black wall and a false window- leading not outside, but to a shaft within the building leading down to a noisy bar. The earplugs did little to muffle the sounds that continued until 1-2am, 2 of our 3 nights. We paid over $700 for 3 nights. Maybe this is inexpensive for Eixample Barcelona, but we felt swindled by the “false” online marketing. Does Christina the owner even exist? We only met the cleaning person, briefly, otherwise there is zero personnel and our WhatsApp communications rarely got answered. Email and calls: nada. The fridges are not full size, breakfast rations are not homemade as they say in writing, and the milk had gone bad. The ecletic look of the common spaces is fine, but regardless of the room you get (sunny with real window? or dark cell…): this is a hostal with 4 private rooms, in an appartment building, with self-serve grocery store breakfast. I have travelled to over 20 countries, always on a budget and we regretted this splurge. $235 per night per room is too much for cramped and sleepless night. The common area was nice, but please put the real photos of the actual rooms so travelers know what to expect. This comment was echoed by a couple we crossed paths with - in another dark box-like room, so it wasn’t just us.

The person who checked us in was wonderful and very helpful. The apartment was cute, and it was in a great location. Be sure to check the online posting well, as it does not do a good job of indicating which room has an on suit and which does not. We had a bathroom that was outside of our room.

First of all, I didn't realize this was more like a hostel - so rooms with shared kitchen and lounge area. The name of the property is Factory Suites, so I thought it was like a regular hotel suite. There was no elevator, no front desk, no bellboy. The room was on the 3rd floor and we had big, heavy suitcases! I was very thankful I was not traveling alone because I have a bad back, an injured knee and my right foot was still healing from a recent surgery, so no way would I have been able to get my suitcase up by myself without great difficulty and pain. And then there was the bar next door with VERY LOUD music until the wee hours of the morning. So, barely slept in the 3 nights we were there. Furniture was old. No microwave. I tried to cancel the booking and was looking for a decent hotel to transfer to but per Expedia staff that we spoke with, we wouldn't get a refund if we did. Spent a good amount of time on the phone with Expedia and they did try to help (I think), but to no avail. If you want to stay in a hotel and in a real suite, then this is not it.

It was convenient and rustic.

"Staying at this accommodation was an absolute delight! The host went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, providing thoughtful touches and excellent communication. The location was ideal, offering easy access to local attractions. A truly memorable experience!"
