I had a wonderful stay in Barcelona — the hotel’s rooms were absolutely gorgeous, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They went above and beyond, even reserving a taxi for me and offering a glass of cava at check-in, which was a lovely touch. I would definitely stay here again. One thing to note: while the hotel itself felt safe and comfortable, the surrounding area seemed a bit sketchy at night. I unfortunately witnessed a pickpocketing incident just outside the hotel, so extra caution is advised when walking around after dark.

Room size is a bit small Double bed is just a combine of two single beds which cause inconvinence Shower head and basin water flow rate is rather low. Bathroom facility does not match with my expectations. Cleanness of the room can be improved. Bedsheets are found with small amount of hair.

I really enjoyed the convenience of the location but with that in mind it was noisy due to the activities at the arc de Triomf. The shower was a little complicated at first but we figured out how to get hot water and it’s worth paying for the breakfast. I would stay there again.
