This is a modest, straightforward hotel that is a good solid value in a city where hotel rates can be high. It worked well as a home base for touring Barcelona on our own. Staff was very friendly and helpful, room simple and unadorned, but clean; bathroom renovated and clean. Very good breakfast! Located on Las Ramblas, about a block from Place Real, which offers multiple restaurant choices. We had a perfectly nice room on the 2nd floor (which is physically the fourth floor: 0, P, 1, 2) overlooking Las Ramblas; it was quiet and completely satisfactory.
