Comfortable and good location
Pros:

Location, friendly staff, good breakfast.

Cons:

The room is required attention, the mirror require to be secured properly, some things in washroom require attention too. Would be nice to have a small boiler in the room

One Night in Barca
Pros:

Room was comfortable and hotel in a good location

Cons:

Bathroom did not appear to have been cleaned as there were long hairs in the bathtub and on a towel.
The shower riser rail was detached from the wall, the sink plug did not hold water.
It seemed a contrast to the rest of the room, which was clean, tidy and comfortable.

Pros:

הארוחת בוקר היתה פשוט מעולה, המון בחירה. החדר היה נוח ונעים ונקי. קרוב מאוד לתחבורה ציבורית ובמיקום מצויין.
הצוות היה מאוד מסביר פנים. אחרי שעשינו צ'ק אוט שכחתי משהו בחדר והם מצאו אותו ושמרו אותי עבורי עד שחזרתי כמה שעות לאחר מכן.

Cons:

רק היה מבאס שלא היתה גישה נוחה למרפסת להינות ממנה והחדר היה מעט חשוך.

Hotel nejspíš dobrý, ale nesmíte mít pokoj, který jsme dostaly my.
Pros:

Poloha ve městě, snídaně.

Cons:

Okna pokoje nevedly do žádné ulice, ale do nějaké úzké šachtice. Otřesný výhled.

Very nice, very clean, but like most hotels in Barcelona, expensive.
Pros:

Good location— walking distance to beach, Las Ramblas, and the Gothic Quarter. There was a taxi stop right outside of the hotel.

Cons:

There wasn’t a business center to print out necessary papers. I had to download documents onto the phone and email them to the hotel for printing, and there is not the option to get color print outs.

Fantastic location and would stay again at the right price.
Pros:

Quaint and quirky hotel - a bit like stepping back in time! Very comfy beds, good linens and very clean. Highly recommend the extra for the terrace rooms, as they have wonderful views, a table and chairs, a parasol, and a sun lounger (private from neighbours, but staff do walk past higher up, so not fully private). External facing rooms have a Juliette balcony that you can just about sit out on in the bedroom/bathroom stools! Internal-facing rooms have a window that faces an internal service/courtyard. Fridge in the room, but no drinks facilities. Vending machine in reception. Fantastic location for us, opposite a leafy square, near several convenience stores, and good restaurants. Within walking distance of the port/harbour, etc. One street away from the work event we were attending. Easy access to sightseeing spots. Bus stop outside and the metro nearby. Lovely staff.

Cons:

Hairdryer is one of those warm air hoses in the bathroom, so pretty much useless. Rough sleepers in local doorways and park areas (everywhere in Barcelona, apparently now). Waited ages for an iron that never arrived. Taxis are very unreliable, even pre-booked.

Goede locatie, maar voor ons te gedateerd
Pros:

Locatie was super en weinig omgevingsgeluid.

Cons:

Veel geluid vanuit leidingen en echt gedateerde: deurkruk viel eraf, gordijnen hangen half af, knipperende lampen, schoonmaak was op een dag om 15u nog niet gedaan, ik had voor de prijs meer verwacht.

Sehr gut gelegenes Hotel mit gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis!
Pros:

Sehr gute Lage, fußläufig zur Altstadt und zum Strand. Sehr freundliches Personal und sauberes, komfortables Zimmer.

Cons:

Zimmer zum Hof war durch ständig laufendes Aggregat sehr geräuschvoll, daher musste Fenster geschlossen bleiben - Klimaanlage war sehr kalt.
