Booked online to stay here during a brief stopover in Barcelona, and boy did I luck out in terms of being right in the middle of the action! I walked everywhere I needed to go, and it is right above a metro station. Yes it was noisy on the street at night (and until dawn, really), and the street is all torn up out front, but the convenience for someone visiting the city for the first time made up for it. The room was good and the staff helpful when I needed them. The breakfast was just meh for 10€, but I’m an American used to eggs, pancakes, etc. Would definitely return.

Great location

The hotel is really nice, super location. I can see where the stairs could be a little tough for people, I had no issues with them, as it is just one flight to the front desk and then there was an elevator. The rooms are super tiny, but had everything we needed, bathroom was very nice. Could not have been happier with our choice to stay there
