Good location about 400m from the first drop off point for the airport bus (Placa d'Espanya) and also near Montjuic and many of the museums (and on the most useful Line 1 of the underground). And there was a bath. Cheap chic really sums it up!

Rob Finland

This hotel was just lovely. The staff was very friendly and helpful. While they offered just coffee for breakfast, it looks like they were previously set up to do breakfast, and I hope they will offer it in the future. The halls look like a movie theater with lighted room numbers. The lounge was comfortable and they had an outdoor space for gathering. The upstairs deck had a beautiful view of the city. There was a space set up for yoga or relaxing and showers on the outside deck to rinse off. My travel buddy and I really liked this hotel and recommended it for our tour group company since it was nicer and less expensive than the one they had us in a few blocks away.

Common area, coffee place, entrance was also very nice. Rooms were not new, but looked refurbished and trendy

Anne Sweden

Nice staff, very friendly and willing to help and free coffee and tea

Mariana Belgium

Easy check-in processed. We arrived, checked in and made it to our rooms. I was working so for me having a nice space with good wifi was essential. Additionally, it is right around the corner from Pl. Espanya so can't complain about the distance (direct buses from Pl. Espanya to the airport). AC worked well, room was cute. Overall can't complain.
