very central location and the breakfast was delicious

This is just a great value for what you get. It's cheap, well located, but also safe and comfortable. Breakfast is well stocked.

Amanda United States of America

good location, a bit noisy but tolerable, smaller room than expected but has everything needed. good breakfast. one thing I don’t understand is that I have to give the room key ( my individual room) to the reception whenever I went out.

Location was perfect, breakfast was lovely. Room was clean with a nice view but so small, if you are going with big luggages the room is not big enough for that.

Great location (on the Rambla streat), good breakfast

Andreea Romania

The location was amazing! Right next to a metro stop to help us get around the city easily. We enjoyed eating breakfast looking out over the busy Las Ramblas. The staff was very nice and helpful.
