Delicious and filling breakfast from 7-1030am. Good price for great location. Short walk to parallel metro with its funicular connection to mountjuc. Doable walk to La Rambla, Plaza de Catalunya and Barri Gothic even for seniors like us. Variety of eating places nearby from burger king to peruvian and andalusian resto. Super clean and good smelling room and washroom. Very comfy bed. Perfecto.

We like the hotel, it was right for the price, basic but clean, breakfast was with options and enough variety with protein, pastry, fruit, jams etc. neighborhood was lively and a bit to much at first sight but we did not feel unsafe with enough families around and different restaurants. Specially tapas places at the street behind the hotel were nice. Thank you for a nice and safe stay.

Good location. We used taxis to meet up with HOHO locations our 2 days there. Disappointed I couldn’t get tickets to Sagria Familial and Park Guell
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

I was very pleasantly surprised by this hotel. I made an almost last minute reservation not researching hotels as much as I usually do, merely choosing it because of its location and price. However, the hotel turned out to be very nice, clean, and recently renovated. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, And, I even got a room upgrade.

Great value. The upgrades they made including an extra layer between walls to reduce room cross noise were good. It was my 7th stay at the hotel. Great WiFi. Good location. Metro station 1 min away. The room had a safe. AC worked very well. Lots of fast food and regular restaurants with minutes. The area outside the hotel is a bit sketchy but it’s safe.
