Everything was on point and the customer service was great. Ramiro at the reception was super professionals and friendly, helping out with city suggestion and planning of the nights in the hotel. Breakfast was super good too. I usually have problem finding a good cappuccino, was great!

GermanyAxel is always worth a visit when in Barcelona. The roof top bar and pool is always good to spend some time at but this trip bad weather meant not much time to enjoy.
