Starting with the good points - the hotel is very modern, and very clean. There is good storage in rooms, with free safe facilities. The bathrooms are very modern, and the beds a good size. There is free internet access 24/7.

The buffet breakfast was wonderful - with a choice of fresh fruit, bacon & eggs, cereal, many types of bread to toast, patisserie, or cold meats and cheese.

On the down side, we were very dissapointed with the location of the hotel for our own purposes. We wanted a city break - but the location of the hotel did not enable us to enjoy Barcelona to its fullest.

It is a very long way out from the centre - I would only advise booking here if you are hiring a car! Otherwise - expect a 20 min walk to the nearest station, then 20-30 mins for the train. It took us an hour to get into Barcelona, and then an hour back - exhausting if you are spending a whole day sightseeing!!!

Also, the location of the hotel did not enable us to use the beach (too much to carry too far!!) and we could not go out in the evening as much as we wanted - it is too far to travel to Barcelona and back twice a day! Expect to pay 15-20 Euros each way in a cab!!! iT WAS EXPENSIVE!!

Also - this hotel is very much a corporate one - from the styling to the lack of personal attention from the staff towards holiday makers. There was NEVER anyone serving in the cafe/bar, they offered no help or advice, and seemed completely unaware/dissinterested in our general presence!! This view was expressed by all the holiday makers at the hotel. Even eating breakfast was a work-it-out-yourself affair - completely unstaffed!!!

To sum up - stay here if you want a quiet out-of-the-way hotel that is modern and business like - if you want a city break we would not advise it unless hiring a car due to proximity to city and costs of travelling to/from Barcelona.
