yes, the central location does make for more noise. but I have stayed on major streets in the big cities in the USA and the noise is the same! everything was perfect, we loved the hotel, loved Barcelona, but did not have enough time there to try out the pool. Great for connecting to/from a cruise........ watch the taxi drivers.... more

The windows opened (always nice in a modern hotel), but we closed them at night to minimize noise. The hotel is located only a few blocks from La Rambla... more

We met friends for a birthday celebration and all of us were staying at the hotel. We arrived at 12:00, but were told that our room was not ready, as check-in was 15:00.
