Fantastic and efficient check-in. The room was incredible, very spacious, clean & chic. The bed could fit 5 people! The room doors are rather strange. How are you meant to hang the “Do not disturb” sign without the door handle? Easy check out and the garage is excellent.
Good to see it open again. The staff were pleasant and helpful. My favourite room was apparently unavailable. Breakfast self service up to a point, nothing exceptional but did the job. Room was in good clean condition!
For us the location is superb, far away from tourist areas and close to good eating, good public transport into town.
I stayed here twice. Purely for it's proximity to a nearby hospital where I was getting some stuff done.
First stay was just 2 nights. Not a lot to report. Things that stickout in my mind were the stained bathroom floor and being asked to pay the 2 euro city tax at checkout when it was already paid. She immedietely realised her mistake but I recommend just paying it at checkout to avoid any issue. Did not try the breakfast as I had to fast.
My second stay was for 5 nights. Much the same as tthe first except that I tried the breakfasts. The bathroom still looked dated and crusty around the edges and also the entire floor floods each time you shower.
For some general points. I find the place decent although I would get the same room in Thailand for 35 euro.
Wifi fast and free.
Room service... Theres a menu but it seems they order it through uber eats or something.
Rooms - Generally ok. Decent size. Bed soft enough and big. Safe box. TV but with limited english channels. Bathrooms look tired but could mostly be fixed with a good scrub in the cracks.
Apparently theres a swimming pool in the basement or something but I wasn't really interested.
Breakfast buffet - Same everyday but no complaints. I looked forward to it everyday. The little chorizos were so tasty. The coffees and selection was all really great. The only thing I would change is add some more vegetable options. The stale hot vegetables is not very nice and could be more interesting.
Location - Good if your here for the nearby hospital. Apart from that the area feels a little isolated. Theres a few eateries nearby but not really interesting.
Discount - So after the first stay you get an email with a code for a discount next time. This combined with another discount on the website made it extremely cheap the 2nd trip (98 euro).
Staff - Were all very nice generally. However regarding housekeeping they seemed to spend hours each day standing right near my door jabbering away. With a whole hotel to clean I don't know why they had to do this right by my door. Very annoying.
Overall it was a good option for the area but given the price of using cabify (30euro for 15 min drives) I felt a bit isolated and the lack of food options was annoying however there is uber eats but all in spanish.
I would stay again but if I didn't need to visit the hospital I would definitely choose somewhere more central.
We wanted to test the Sarria area where this hotel is located. It is a very quiet and relaxing area. Bar Tomas - which has Barcelona's best "patata bravas" - is reason enough to visit this area.
The room price is reasonable and reflects that this is totally outside the city center. But it also has its advantages. It was a little dirty in the shower and it pulls down. The breakfast are simple, but also very cheap.
The net was good and the service invisible. If you get a good price, like quiet and quiet, this could be an option. But no more than the middle of the tree on all levels.
Be very careful booking with them, I found a cheaper price and in great Spanish service fashion they didn't answer my emails, then on live chat ran me through a bureaucracy. I'm sure they will respond something about "policy", but that's the point. If you have "guaranteed lowest price" all over your site, then honor it.
