Elevator was on second floor, not first and tiny, no room for luggage and 1 person. Room was in disrepair. Bathroom was yucky. Not worth the price. Renovate the place.

First of all… the elevator they have is to small is just for one person, which means you need to put your bags first to the floor you go and then call the elevator for your self, the guy wasn’t helping at all to you to instruct you about the use of elevator or your room locations, the room has some walls whit big cracks, the courtains on the window they didn’t cover all the way so you have the light on your room, the person in charge to clean the room next day didn’t cleaning it at all not even the bathroom, I ask for a hot of cup water to the front person and they said they don’t have it but they have a microwave, when I told him that he said you can use it if you want, I ask him for a cup and he says here it is is duty you have to wash it.. so honestly cero service.

Location location location. This property on La Rambla is the main reason we decided to stay here. It is right across the metro stops and Gothic quarters and other major sites to see are all walkable. We were warned to be aware of pick pocketers on the street but luckily we did not have any mishappenings. The property itself is very very basic. The room was ok, paint chipping off and one thing that we did not like was the bathroom did not have a lock/ had sliding door. Also the exhaust in the bathroom did not work properly. If one person is using the bathroom, it is better the other room occupants should stay out!

The good thing is that is in the most walkable area in Barcelona, "La Rambla". The hotel is in good condition but it is a Hostal not a Hotel. The staff are really nice.

I don’t think the advertisement meets the reality; extremely small rooms, black mold on ceiling, one night came and no power, no staff to talk to and no phone number to contact them. Several stairs to gel to the hostal. One person elevator available. Positive: location and friendly staff.

We were a little concerned when we arrived not sure what we had booked! But to our surprise it was a great stay! One of the beds was a bit older than the other ones so it was hard to sleep on that one! We kind of scouched in and slept all on 2 twin beds. Overall a good experience

Perfect location
Perfect location. We’re at the middle of everything. Few steps from the hotel is metro. Opposite the hotel is buqueria market, very accessible wherever you go. The only downside is the lift that only one person can fit into it. Inside the room, the bathroom door is squeky, we lift it to open or close to avoid that noise. It smells maybe coming from the drainage. The faucet are rusty but it’s working fine anyway. The staff in reception is really nice, sorted straight away the ripped wall paper. They clean the room everyday and they changed the towel everyday as well.

Great stay!!!
This apartment is good for short stay were you only use it for sleeping and the whole day you are out roaming around Barcelona. It’s only infront of the famous market in La Rambla area and you can walk towards Plaza Catalunya, Casa Batillo, La Pedrera, Port of Barcelona and a lot more if you will just follow the map with planned itinerary. Everything you need is walking distance like restaurants, shopping, market, etc. The price is just ok for the 4 of us. The only thing that is not really working well of the lift and only 1 person can go in because its so tiny and we ended up always climbing the stairs and its very tiring from having a long walks touring around Barcelona. But if you are fuzzy and wants a very comfortable bed, this place might not suit you. For us its ok because we are just using it mainly to have a good rest and sleep. We ride the taxi on our way back to the airport and we paid €38. The bus fare cost €5.75 each and will drop you to Plaza Catalunya and from there its just a short walking distance to the apartment. We will definitely go back again and choose this place if available.

This place was Sooo good! We didn’t care about the biggest room or comfiest bed. The room was sufficient for my husband and I and had clean sheets and blankets. There was a small but clean bathroom. The lobby always smelled nice and was clean and had great hosts! This place was a steal of a deal because of where it is located! Holy cow! Couldn’t have stayed at a better place location wise! I highly recommend!

we had several suitcases and the staff was very helpful with getting them to the room, but we had to climb at least 4 flights of very narrow stairs with the remaining bags. The beds were very sprung and not comfortable. The room was clean and in decent condition.
