Pros:

la posizione

Cons:

letto allestito un pò retrò con coperte e copriletto, non molto igienico, camera con tende ( impolverate ) che non oscuravano del tutto ed insonorizzazione inesistente, si sentivano addirittura i passi della gente sul marciapiede
ed il carico e scarico merci del ristorante
camera e sopratutto il bagno MICRO!!

eccessivi 210 euro a notte senza colazione

Super lokalita a cena - rozhodně doporučuji.
Pros:

Lokalita je skvělá. Vše se nechá krásně dojít pěšky (pláž, památky, obchody, spoustu restaurací a kaváren, krásný klidný park, zoo. Případně hned před hotelem vstup do metra, kola k zapůjčení....skvěle fungující Bolt.
Personál milý, vše připraveno, žádná komplikace.

Cons:

Na mě v hotelu dost měkké postele, ale nic dramatického. Záleží kdo je jak zvyklí.

Consigliato sicuramente!!
Pros:

La struttura si trova in una zona favolosa, si arriva a piedi al centro e al mare. Per il resto c’è un noleggio bici a 1 minuti a piedi e fermate di autobus praticamente ovunque. L’hotel affaccia sul parco della Ciutadella che è stupendo. Pulizia della camera ottima! E letto super comodo! Abbiamo cenato al ristorante sotto: ottimo cibo e prezzo assolutamente soddisfacente!! Personale molto gentile e disponibile!

Cons:

Rumore della strada e delle persone che distano al ristorante fino a tarda notte. Le ginestre non isolano molto bene il rumore e le tende non isolano molto bene la luce (io ho comunque risentì con tappi e mascherina e ho dormito benissimo).
Colazione non inclusa (ma comunque si può fare al ristorante dell’albergo ad un prezzo decente)

konum önemli, temiz de olsun diyorsanız 1-2 gün kalınır ama oda memnun etmedi
Pros:

Otelin konuma çok iyi. karşısında ciutadella parkı ve arc de triomf’a yakındı. hemen önünde otobüs durağı var ve gidilmesi gereken her yere gidebiliyorsunuz. Odaların temizliği her gün yapıldı, temizdi.

Cons:

Odamız çok küçüktü, ve bina boşluğuna bakıyordu, zindan gibiydi.

Excelente ubicación
Pros:

La ubicación es excelente. Habitación pequeña pero con lo necesario: cama cómoda, escritorio, baño completo.

Cons:

Relación precio/ calidad . Es caro para lo que ofrecen, aunque entiendo que bcn maneja esos precios. Por otra parte, la habitación tiene una ventana que da a un patio interno, no hay buena ventilación.
