Perfect location. Super nice terrace. Rooms are big.
Breakfast is expensive and everyday the same. Not worth it.

Travelled for work and had a very pleasant stay. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and the location was extremely convenient. I mainly used Uber for my meetings, but the metro station is literally right outside the hotel, which made getting around the city very easy. There are also plenty of excellent restaurants nearby. I stayed for a few nights and kindly requested a room change to an interior-facing room to avoid street noise. The hotel accommodated my request without any issue, and the new room met all my expectations — it even had a private terrace, which was a lovely bonus.
The street-facing room on my first night was a little noisy due to traffic, but the hotel was very accommodating when I requested a quieter room.

Disappointing
Swimmingpool on the roof is great
I had room 109 on the first Floor on the street side and I could not sleep in the night of the noise of drumk people in the street untill 7 am. Then there was a room for personal next the mine and there was also very lot of noise in the morning. I have booked for 4 nights and after 3 nights not sleep i decided to abort my vacacion and went home a day earlier but i get not my money back. A room for 1 nihht was more then 250 euro

Wonderful place to stay, not in a center of Barcelona but very friendly and clean. There was a front desk guy ( Mario ) deserve to be mentioned and congratulated due his amazing job.

The approach was easy and it was very convenient to catch a bus or find good food. Rooftop view was amazing
The staff was not very welcoming. We were given only one keep per room despite being a family of four people, and despite requesting. Also, the cleaning staff tended to remove the key from the door entrance electricity socket, leaving my electronics discharged by the time we came back in the evening.

The rooftop pool had a sea view which was incredible.
They repeatedly did not put away the spare bed, so I gave up asking after the third time. The water took 15 minutes to become warm and the staff were so patronising when I raised it. I wasn’t the only one. Others raised it as well, while others’ rooms got hot water immediately. The room was tired with things being loose or falling off.

Awesome location, clean and comfortable. It was quiet for us. Staff also very helpful.
The room was dark, without natural light, you need to turn on the light even during the day. But that may be the price of a quiet atmosphere in this part of the city.
