Overall, not a bad hotel in terms of location, staff friendliness, and condition. Just a word of warning: purse snatchers operate in this hotel. Why is this the hotel's problem, and not the responsibility of the traveler? As a seasoned traveler, I have seen my share of hotels and hostels. This is one of the less effective accommodations in terms of managing guest security. The hotel lobby is very loosely monitored by the minimal staff. non-guests congregate in the dining area lobby for long durations and have ready access to the entrance to come and go as they please. The staff could simply restrict visitors to those are clearly meeting guests, as many hotels do, or post an unarmed security guard to watch the place. This is not to say that you will be the victim of a theft if you stay at this hotel, simply that this hotel is an ideal place for thieves operating in the area. There are so many inexpensive, clean, and accommodating hotels in the BCN airport vicinity. You will be safer at one of those that doesn't jeopardize your property.
