The room is clean and so is the entire hotel. Breakfast is abundant and decent (hot and cold). Wonderful staff. Perfect location: walkable to public transportation and local attractions like the Sagrada (11 minute walk). Cafes, restaurant, laundry bar and groceries are just next door to the hotel. There’s a public construction going on outside the hotel and it was unappealing. Otherwise, I had a wonderful time in Barcelona in this hotel.
We had a really great stay and everything was very good overall. The room was comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful.
Just a small suggestion — it would be nice if the air conditioning could be a bit cooler at night, as my wife felt a little warm while sleeping.
Overall, a lovely hotel and we would happily stay again.
Room is ok and the staff are wonderful. The only thing I don’t like is the half shower door which always wet the bathroom floor every time you shower and no iron and ironing board. Overall we have wonderful stay

Not impressed, slightly below average for a 3 star hotel. The hotel building is OK. Bed comfort has important shortfalls. For them a king bed is using 2 single beds together with the sheets being too small for this size, so they do not fit properly and also 2 people canot be properly covered by the blankets. TV is really really tiny. The electronic thermostat changes nothing, so you have no control of the room temperature. The breakfast is well below average for Spain; on top of the limited food selection they do not keep the food warm, so scrambled eggs, bacon, potatoes are cold and undercooked. The service and cleanliness are OK.

The location was good as it was close to Sagrada Família. Hotel and staff were okay. Would’ve been nice if they had foutain water and coffee available for guests.
All good. The thing that stood out to me was the location of the hotel. It is definitely close to all the important areas of the city. I enjoyed my stay.

Room was just OK, they play a game between what is shown on pics compared to what they actually give you. Mgr is a painful person as he made us wait tilll 3 PM to check in which bit into our short 2 night stay in Barcelona. We left hotel at noon and had to come back to check in then start again. Breakfast was well worth pre-paying as food in Barcelona is ridiculous. each coffe in a restaurant is 1.5 euro & sandwich is 5 euro so at 9 euro this is very good to eat at hotel before you leave. Good choices/clean.

The hotel is conveniently located by Sagrada Familia and the metro station, about 9 minutes walk. The 24-hr front desk staff was great upon check-in/out. The room is small but still spacious enough for two people to fully unpack. We had daily housekeeping and got fresh towels, even when we planned on reusing the towels. The rooms are not sound proofed but we couldn’t hear our neighbors at all. We slept well at night. The bathroom is quite large with a tub/shower with a moveable glass door that you must place it in a specific position ensuring the base rubber is pointing towards the tub to avoid water spillage everywhere. I get that they tried to make the glass as a door, but being a tub, I don’t see how this is needed or would work well. Even with our best efforts, we still had quite significant amount of water leaking after showers. We found some mold behind the toilet as it’s installed so close to the wall that it must be hard to properly clean it. Outside of that, everything else was very good. The hotel offers breakfast at an additional charge but we did not have any as we wanted to try the local restaurants and shops. But it’s a nice to have option, specially if you are running short on time. Overall this was a good value, specially for the area.
Breakfast was a good variety, only warm though not hot food. They had pineapple juice which is RARE!! Rooms were cleanish (hairs on floor and in shower, sheets had stains) front desk person for day shift was NOT helpful, his answer to everything was "oh i dont know"
The staff wasn’t friendly or knowledgeable about the surrounding! The bathroom smelled Terribly, the location is not safe at night and in a poor neighborhood. Will definitely not recommend or stay here again!
