While the front desk attendant was nice and the room itself was nicely furnished, there was one kiss of death for this hotel: The smell! Our first entrance into our room was greeted with a rather foul smell of vinegar or strong bleachlike detergents. The smell pervaded through our three day trip despite attempts to air out the room and... more

Stayed at this hotel for three nights (Tue to Fri) last June. The man at the reception was quite nice and spoke good English. Got a room on the fifth floor facing the back. It had two single beds right next to each other, a 13-inch tube TV with cable, good-sized closet with safe and floor-to-ceiling mirrors, and a nice... more

Although the location was ok, the service was horrible (for Barcelona). Upon a late arrival, we were placed in a room on a floor with construction. There was yellow tape preventing access to all but two rooms on the floor, one being ours. We awoke early next morning to the sounds of construction workers. We had booked 3 nights and... more

Stayed here for 5 nights during a trip to Barcelona last week. The rooms are basic but clean, staff friendly and always helpful. The hotel is pretty central and only a 10 minute walk from Las Ramblas and is reasonably priced when compared to other hotels around Barcelona. (You wouldn't think it was a 2 star hotel). If your looking... more

Hotel was basic, but the rooms were clean. No restaurant or bar. Ok if only using to sleep, but having said that the beds were very uncomfortable. Quite noisy even though the hotel was not fully booked. Our view from the window was not pleasant unless you like scruffy apartments with washing hanging out. But the staff were pleasant and... more

Went to Barcelona on a hens weekend with a group of 14, the hotel is nothing to look at from the outside and expecting it to be more of a hostel, however on arriving in our large clear room I was very surprised. The Double room had enough room for three of us! The bathroom was very clean and also... more

I didn't love the hotel, but I thought it was fine. Good location, nice enough staff and free internet. The cost seemed ok (not fantastic value) and seemed cheaper than other places around. I would recommend you stay here if you are after a no-fuss base. Not if you are after somewhere special. more

Both my girlfriend and I loved the hotel, especially the staff. We were amazed that the hotel is only rated at 2 stars as we have stayed in 5 star hotels with worse service. The room we had was roomy, clean, and well kept. Highly highly highly recommended. Like really highly. more
