I stay at this hotel after read about it from cruisecritic website and a lot of people from our roll call stay at this hotel and we had precruise get together. I love the location of the hotel which was very good to everything. It was nice that they have 24 hours free buffet. The beer on tab was good... More

For our purposes, I'd call rate it a 5. Since it is not luxurious like some travelers would like, I did a 4. We spent one night prior to cruise in late April, then another night a week later. The staff is amazing. We think that the only reason that the lost luggage made it the cruise on time was... More

This hotel is a gem - directly on Las Ramblas, giving you a great feel for being in the heart of such a special City! And how convenient - a 3 minute walk from the spot where the Airport shuttle drops you off on the Placa Catalunÿa. Our balcony view was wonderful, yet the room was quiet enough to get... More

We enjoyed our stay at this quirky little hotel! If you are expecting luxury and U.S. standards, this isn't the place for you. But if you are looking for a tiny mom-and-pop style European hotel, give it a go! Out of all the places we stayed on our trip to Europe, this is the one that gave us the best... More

Location of this hotel is second to none. It is at the top of La Ramblas clost to the square. We stayed here for a couple of nights in May, and had upgraded the room to a superior balcony room overlooking La ramblas. View from the room / Balcony was fantastic, if a little noisy during the night (but we... More

Spent two nights here following a cruise, central located on La Rambla & close to airport bus, metro, shops, restaurants, sights. Arrived 9am but room not yet ready (which we didn't expect anyway), our luggage was stored & delivered to our room before we returned. Room small & internal & basic, & decorated in all shades of pink, not my... More

The perfect place to stay based on location. Our room was tiny but ingeniously laid out so that it was useful. The novelty of beer and wine on tap wore off quickly - wine not very good, beer sometimes didn't work. Very good staff made the stay easy. Hotel itself a little run-down but it worked for us.

This was our third stay at the hotel. It's fun to stay here. It's not your average hotel. It has a lot of atmosphere. And it's really funky. I hope they never change it. The first time, we stayed with our grandkids and the free all you can eat buffet was the big hit especially the soda and ice cream.... More

Can't believe this is rated so highly. Very disappointed with the hotel, the rooms, the bathroom, the noise, the breakfast, almost everything. The only good thing about this hotel is its location and the friendly girls at the reception desk. Upon checkin the guy behind the desk told the girl to give us the room that's noisy near the cleaners... More

Had a pre cruise of 3 nights. Great location. La Ramblas is just outside the main door. 24 hr light buffet was a welcome treat after a tiring day. Clean room and bath facilities. Enjoyed my stay.
