staff was nice, the location was amazing! located in walking distance to the beaches and la rambla! the body wash and shampoo provided smelt amazing and the room was clean and had great views! the hotel was also very secure!

This hotel is fantastic! Huge room by European standards with a balcony, complete with table and chairs. The customer service is outstanding. Slippers and lollipops were waiting on my bed. Free bottled water, tea, coffee and biscuits are in a central area close to all rooms. The Hop on Hop off bus is a short block away and metro right down the street. Lots of city sites within walking distance. The bed is nice and firm with body size fluffy pillows. I would definitely stay here again. I wish the were in every European city!!

It is very close to the train station. There was a cloth bag and lollypop on the bed as a gift on the arrival. The decoration is very nice. There is a free safe in the room. The reservation is in the other street but it is very close. They offer free coffee, tea and water during the day.

Great location, staff very friendly at reception and nothing was too much trouble!!! Room was clean and perfect for our 4 night stay!!!

Very cute, comfortable and clean place! Central location and tons of great food around the property.

During check-in and check-out the staff was very friendly and accommodating, and there is a cozy cafe in the reception area. My wife and I arrived very early but they were willing to call us as soon as the room was ready (early) and showed us some places to visit during our 2-day stay. The location of the hotel is obviously close to the zoo, but also a very short walk to the Born district (which we thought was very fun) and the Gothic quarter. The rooms were clearly updated/remodeled which was appreciated, as the building is a bit older. The rooms also have your standard hotel amenities, with a nice modern touch. While small, the bathrooms are very clean and the showers and sinks are excellent. Overall, the hotel felt very safe and comfortable.

The staff was wonderful and very helpful with all of our questions and needs. The hotel was comfortable and clean. I would definitely recommend

The decoration and embiance is nice The staff are very nice amd helpful It is close to everything and Transportation is very close ( bus/train)

Very friendly staff. Room was as shown in pictures. Location was ideal: in a safe neighbourhood and close enough (max 10 mins walk) to main metro lines, also close to Barceloneta. Coffee and tea station was a nice touch.

Great location within short walking distance to the Picasso museum and some nice restaurants. The hotel rooms are supposed to be one star hotel rating, but they were very nice with numerous funny and cool touches throughout. Excellent beds! Small TV on the wall, but I didn't come to Barcelona to watch TV. If it's winter, be ready to drink a lot of free bottled water as the heating in the building will dry you Mojave bone dry. Warm heating system: sort of the European "slightly uncomfortable" warmth level.
