My wife and I stayed here on the 14th and 15th February 2020, I had read reviews on herebeforehand so knew what to expect (hence I booked this hotel for 2 nights and another hotel for 2 nights for our 4 night stay just to be on the safe side).

The Checkin was easy and staff members all pleasant with the language barrier not an issue. The rooms were fine for a hotel of this level (£83 per night for 2 people) and the hotel was located 10 mins from La Ramblas and the underground. The surrounding area wasn't the greatest but at no point did we feel unsafe.

Now the main issue the noise, right outside the window until 4 or 5am on a friday, it isn't a coincidence that it's mentioned in most reviews, you are basically right above a party. This put a dampener on an otherwise fine stay.

Would I stay here again? No, despite all the positives you really only use your hotel for rest and when you can't get that it can have a big impact on your holiday, plus the other hotel (The Corner Hotel) we went to was better in every way for a small prce increase.

No room service, no guests allowed, staff is rude, they don’t actually have a pool. Total scam - a bunch of clean ikea furniture with no appliances, toiletries, or substantial tissues/ towels. Location is also in the ghetto, you cannot walk across the street at night without getting shouted at by gangs.

Hotel was clean and enough freshly renovated, room was enough spacious for a hotel in old European city center, personnel was cheerful and service-minded. Hotel is very conveniently located in the city center. The only but huge minus was the hotel neighborhood: the district is, seems, turned into a Muslim quarter with respective condition of surrounding estates, dirty streets, chaotic trade, loud traffic, etc. It was like tranferring from Spain to a sort of Turkey or Pakistan every evening, when returning back to the hotel at the day end.
