AMAZING STAFF!
Pros:

We had planned a short getaway because our wedding anniversary and my husband’s birthday fall around the same time, and I had mentioned this in a note before our stay. To our surprise, the hotel prepared separate gifts for both occasions, which was such a thoughtful gesture and something we truly weren’t expecting. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely wonderful throughout our stay. They made us feel very special, and their hospitality exceeded our expectations.

Cons:

The location was excellent and within walking distance of all the main attractions, which made it very convenient to explore the city.

The only downside during our stay was that there happened to be a three-day festival taking place right next to the hotel, followed by late-night celebrations. As a result, it was quite noisy, and getting a good night’s sleep was difficult. That said, we understand this was an exceptional circumstance rather than something guests should normally expect. We also chose such a central location knowing that it could come with a bit more noise.

One other minor point is that, although the hotel itself felt very safe, modern, and well-managed, the surrounding neighborhood didn’t always feel as comfortable, particularly late in the evening. We never experienced any issues ourselves, but it is something future guests may wish to be aware of.

Worth the price
Pros:

Great staff. Got greater with cava and good mood. Rooms interesting with a tiny/French balcony. Comfortable beds. If you desire privacy this is not the place, since it has the bathroom in the bedroom with a thin sliding door to the toilet. You can pull the mirror in front of the shower, but you can stil see through the shower door. But it didn't bother us.
The top floor is so adorable. And the breakfast is small but tasty and satisfying.
The whole place is so cosy and likable it's definitely worth the money.
We had the quiet Rec and it was actually quiet!
Will definitely come back. Been to Barcelona many times, and I love this one!
