I came in with low expectations, and was pleasantly surprised with the accommodations although it certainly is not a 4-star hotel like it claims. Careful, this is a long and detailed review. Location: it is in the Gothic quarter of Barcelona, or basically the very heart of the city. I found most everything within walking distance: Las Ramblas was a... more

We stayed here for a week in March 2009 and for the price (85EUR/night + tax), it wasn't bad. I have to agree with previous reviewers regarding the sound insulation. The noise from the street, while not excessive, is round the clock and reverberates in the narrow streets. The windows do not provide good insulation and we have stayed in... more

Do not stay in this hotel! There is no way this hotel deserves four stars. I had no water in the shower - two days in a row! The staff would not help me (reception staff hardly speaks English) or allow me to change rooms. I had to shower in a colleague's room the first day and did not shower... more

We stayed at this hotel for three nights and had a great time in Barcelona although it was raining for most of the time. The hotel was smaller than the impression you get from pictures. It was clean (cleaning every day), the room was accomodating in size and standard, not overly extravagant but not rough. Bathroom was ok and clean.... more

This should definitely NOT be graded as a 4 star hotel. The facilitites are poor, the rooms are small and the bathroom was old and not very clean. The breakfast was terrible. The only good thing about it was it's location. It is easy to get to anywhere from this hotel. If you are looking for somewhere for a relaxing... more

For a "4 Star" this is a no go area. You have to have nerves of steel to get through the experience. Staff who go out of their way NOT to help. No hot water,noisy rooms poorly maintained & dire breakfasts to boot. Poor facilities in the rooms & not very much information about the hotel or the city. For... more

After reading some previous reviews we were apprehensive, but were pleasantly surprised. The staff were extremely helpful and spoke reasonably good English. The rooms had recently been refurbished. The hotel is located in the Gothic... more

I don't know why anyone is so crabby about this hotel. My boyfriend and I stayed there and found everything to be just fine. The location is wonderful - just steps to La Rambla, the cathedral, and public transportation. The staff spoke English better than any other Spanish person we came in contact wtih. They were rude, my "Hi, we'd... more
