Quirky, Clean, Great Location
Staff was receptive and informative. The hotel has a quirky, but cool vibe probably most appreciated by couples and younger guests. We had a lovely patio with a sitting cove accessible through French doors in our room. Lots of amenities like coffee, tea, still and water with gas. Also lots of comfortable open areas if you want to chill outside your room. The location is excellent—walking distance to museums, parks, the marina and lots of eateries and bars. The only drawback is that the walls are very thin and if any love is being made, you will hear about it.

Karen

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The position was great, easy walk to most things and close to transport. The hotel was ok. Considering the cost of the shoulder season room, there could have been more amenities. As a solo traveler, the room size was fine, would have been a struggle with 2 people. The AC is not controllable in the room as it a central cooling/heating system so I had to ask for an extra doona as my room was freezing. There is no safe or fridge in the room, which is disappointing. You can access a safe in reception but that’s quite inconvenient. No fridge meant I couldn’t buy any snacks that needed refrigeration. The room doors need to be adjusted as they slam when closing. I found it very annoying to have doors banging at all hours of the night. The room cleaner was excellent. The coffee/tea break out area was also good. Would I stay there again? Probably not, I’d shop around first.

If you like funky, this hotel is for you. The location can’t be beat, in the thick of the historic district of Barcelona. Food, food and more food choices literally at the hotel’s doorstep. Their breakfast offering was just a notch above basic, with scrambled eggs and bacon in addition to the usual cold offerings. Their small patio offers cold drinks after a hot day sightseeing. Beware, as their Sangria packs a punch! Friendly, helpful staff. Would recommend wholeheartedly. Pedro Canada

Good stay
It was a good short break hotel. The communal areas were an added bonus. We would have liked a refrigerator in our room and the toilet and shower arrangement quirky/odd. Staff were very friendly. The rope curtains outside each room were fun to look at, but not practical.

Very friendly staff. Had problem with shower drain and they fixed it on the second day. Location is convenient and hip, but also a little grungy and not particularly quiet. Did not have breakfast but looked very nice (recommend Picnic restairant right nearby). Really nice to have water refill, tea, etc. in common area. Not a fan of the design - hanging plastic rope curtains in hallways and the rooms - would be much nicer if those were removed and could see more of the beautiful old building and have a clear hallway. Also the creative design of glass showers in the middle of the room may not appeal to all, but if you are into the unusual, may be just right for you.

Staff was very kind and the property feels very safe. They provided a birthday treat on arrival. The hallways smell like intense sewage and there was very loud construction noise each morning in adjacent rooms. The room layout is uncomfortable.
