This hotel is mediocre at best. Please beware that the hotel is very run down and doesn’t in my opinion match the pictures on Expedia. For instance, some rooms in this hotel are updated and are what are advertised in the pictures, however we didn’t get the renovated room. Instead, our room was outdated and smelled musty and strongly of mold. There’s no fan in the bathroom so when you take a shower the bathroom fills with steam, thus the mold issue. I really wouldn’t recommend or stay here again unless this issue of mold in the room is dealt with promptly as both parties staying in the hotel became ill and exhibited common mold exposure symptoms. This is most definitely a health hazard in my opinion. Additionally, the sound proofing is non-existent so rooms are very loud all day and throughout the night. You can hear your neighbors on all sides and outside noise as well. Saying all this, I also want to highlight that the staff were EXCELLENT and very attentive and helpful during our stay. If it weren’t for the amazing staff we likely would have left due to the strong mold issues.

Welcoming staff, clean room, amenities provided. Pool was not for use during our stay since it was still in the colder months. However take advantage of the view you can see the Torre Agbar ( egg shape building ) 8th floor! Did not have breakfast added but is available ($) A 5 min walk from restaurants and small shopping stores. Metro accessible as well within walking distance.

Boutique 3 star Hotel Near The Centre of Barcelona. About 30 minutes walking distance to the beach. The hotel is well managed in terms of foods and services.Staff are very friendly especially at the reception. Breakfast at 13 Euro per person is nice for a 3 star hotel with fresh orange juice machine. Everything is very small especially for North American tourists from rooms, beds, bathtub, bed , elevator to the rooftop pool . Towels need replacement and ceiling in my room had some small stains of emerging moulds stains in need of repair and paint .

The staff here was great! The hotel is comfortable not fancy with smaller rooms and smaller Bathrooms. We found this place after our Airbnb fell Through. It’s not in the main tourist area but very close to A metro station. This hotel chain is very nice. For the price we paid it was great! Just enough amenities to give you what you need. The front desk staff were very welcoming Albert in the morning and I can’t remember the evening staff persons name. I would Book with this chain of hotels again.
