Pros:

The staff was very friendly and helpful!

Cons:

The hotel is very far from the city of Barcelona. It is worth the stay even if you have to get a taxi.

Nice building and neighborhood with helpful staff to make your visit to Barcelona enjoyable.
Pros:

Ac blew cubes. Early 2000s decor took me back. I liked the pool. I liked the common area large windows that opened to the outside. Tranquil neighborhood. I liked the winding staircase. The breakfast, while sparse, got me off to a good start. Liked the cappuccino machine. The staff were nice.

Cons:

No cups in the room. Only one set of shampoo and soap for three days. A little more breakfast would be nice.

Pros:

I stayed for one night because I needed a place with a convenient location. Before that, I was staying nearby with a friend. The only real plus was that the room had air conditioning.

I’d recommend staying here only if you need a place for one night — not more than that.

Cons:

Unfortunately, my experience wasn’t great. The room wasn’t clean, and there was no soap to wash my hands. There were also no slippers — I’ll skip that part, but it added to the discomfort.

As for breakfast, I only took some bread and a cookie. Most of the food was cold and not tasty.

Ab 30 Grad plus nicht zu empfehlen.
Pros:

die Lage war für mich günstig, Frühstück ok. Mein Zimmer lang hinten heraus zum Swimming Pool, deshalb war es recht ruhig. EinFreund, der zur Straße hin wohnte, konnte wegen des Straßenlärms (Motorradraserstraße) nicht schlafen und verlangte deshalb auch ein Zimmer zum Swimming Pool liegend.

Cons:

Durch das Klimagerät war es entweder schnell zu kalt oder , wenn abgeschaltet, schnell unerträglich heiß und stickig. Es gab keine Abstufung in der Intensität der Kühlung.
Der Swimming Pool war eher ein Kinderplanschbecken, Wasser reichte bis zu den Knien bzw. Hüfte.
Mit Koffer sind es , weil den Berg hinauf, eher 15-20 Minuten ab U-Bahn Maria Cristina.
