    The location and staff were really great! Cleaning of the room was OK.

    Breakfast wasn't good. Hardly any choice. You had to eat with paper plates and paper bowls.

    The location of the hotel as well as the connection to public transport is great. We had a great room with a balcony overlooking the Rambla. The rooms and the hotel are very clean. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Air conditioning in the hotel/ room is very good.

    Disposable crockery for breakfast. No variety at the buffet (breakfast and 24-hour buffet). No service staff for the breakfast, table has to be cleared, etc.

    Liked the convenience to Las Ramblas. However, balcony room was still very noisy. My husband loved having unlimited beer & wine. The buffet was adequate, but not a great selection. Had internet for customer use. Very pleasant, helpful reception staff.

    Very hard bed. Too many buttons to operate everything in the room, that were explained to us in Spanish, which we do not understand.

    Well, that was a surprise!

    This spot offers an unexpected treasure right on La Rambla. A cozy room with a balcony made for perfect people-watching. The 24-hour buffet is a game-changer with plenty of options! Staff were notably helpful. Be aware that the common areas feel a bit dated, but don't let that detract from the experience.

    Snacks and soft drinks, coffee and also beer and wine are offered 24 hours free of charge. Perfect!!!!. Everything was very clean. It doesn't matter that the rooms radiate the charm of the 80s.

    The location is excellent and if you can ignore the pink interior, the extras you get are well worth staying here. While the food on the bar is not gourmet, it is certainly substantial. Every morning breakfast-type items were put out and all day there were refreshed pastas,tapas and snacks. My hubby said the free beer on tap and the coffee/espresso/cappuccino machine alone was worth the cost of staying here and the back garden area was like having an outdoor cafe. I would however recommend getting a balcony room for the sheer joy of people watching. We did, and it was the icing on the cake! :-)

    You have to get used to sticking your room key in a slot by the door to keep the electricity on. This means you can not leave the room and keep electronics charged up because the "greening" of the place means the electricity turns off every time you leave the room. While I can appreciate these cost-saving measures, it can be annoying at times. (Fair warning...)
