Very pleasant stay in Barcelona

I stayed 3 nights at Hotel Balmes and was very satisfied with my experience. The hotel is well located, in a pleasant neighborhood and very convenient for getting around Barcelona.
The staff was particularly welcoming, helpful, and always ready to assist, which really made the stay even more enjoyable.
The room was comfortable and the hotel overall is a great place to stay for a trip to the city. I would definitely recommend it for anyone visiting Barcelona.
