Very nicely decorated hotel, friendly staff. Room well appointed, comfy beds with extra pillows and blankets. Easy to use safe for your valuables. Kettle, tea and small bottles of water provided (no coffee or milk). Fridge large enough to fit lots of water/milk/alcohol in! Nice bathroom with a great shower. Only downsides to the room were that the aircon in the room was not particularly effective, and there was not a huge amount of space in the room so with three people sharing, it was a bit cosy. We were warned that the road outside the hotel could be a bit dodgy at night, but we didn't experience any problems walking back in the dark. You just need to be sensible, and keep your your phone and wallet out of sight. Very convenient location for La Rambla, the maritime museum, Port Vell and the Gothic Quarter. Great bakery selling lovely coffee a minute down the road, towards the port. Great stopover for anyone catching a cruise ship from Barcelona too - the cruise ship shuttle buses were a few minutes walk away.

Hotel is located fairly close to a main avenue that has lots of shopping as well as easy, walkable access to major monuments. The room was nice and staff were very helpful during our stay. Unfortunately the walls are quite thin so if you have loud and uncaring neighbors like we had, you will probably be kept up at night.

Room was clean and updated. Location was nice and close to the La Rambla. Entrance street to hotel is a little sketchy. Front desk was very helpful in securing transportation to the airport for us. All in all we would stay here again.
