Categories

Cleanliness
9.4
Multiple reviews explicitly call the property very clean and praise housekeeping and bed comfort; overall cleanliness is a clear strength.
Service
8.4
Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful (reception, rooftop staff), but there are repeated service negatives (slow check-in, no porter, language limitations and some unfriendly breakfast staff) so score is positive but tempered.
Location
9.9
Almost every review praises the location (near La Rambla, Casa Batlló and major attractions); location is clearly excellent and the main selling point.
Room Quality
6.8
Many comments note dated rooms, peeling bathroom areas, snug layouts and problems with temperature control (no AC) — room condition is the weakest area.
Amenities
7.8
Rooftop bar and included breakfast/vouchers are positives, but lack of porter, limited cooling/AC and some maintenance issues reduce the amenities score.
Value for Money
8.4
Good location, comfortable beds and included breakfast make the hotel feel like good value for many guests, though dated rooms and some service gaps temper this.
Food and Beverage
9.1
Breakfast is described repeatedly as generous/abundant and generally good; a few guests note limited variety or boxed eggs, but overall F&B impressions are positive.
Overall Experience
9
Many guests say they'd stay again and highlight cleanliness, staff helpfulness and location; negatives (dated rooms, heat/AC issues, slow check-in) are present but do not dominate the overall sentiment.

Great location and friendly staff!
Pros:

This property is clean, aesthetically pleasing and very conveniently located. We cannot say enough about the lovely staff in the restaurant- Evelyn, Fatima and Jessica. All 3 ladies were friendly and gave us tips for places to go within walking distance. Mohammed is the door man and greeted us with a smile and friendly conversation each day.
We would certainly stay here again.

ロケーションの良さ
Pros:

ロケーションが最高です。
交通手段はUber を利用しましたが、どこへ行くにも近かったと思います。
清掃も毎日されており、清潔に感じました。
バスタブ付きのお部屋でした。

Cons:

2泊した部屋は窓がテレビで塞がれ、暗い部屋でした。
部屋には夜しかいないので我慢できましたが、朝食会場が空いていて部屋数が多いのに何故わざわざこの部屋なのかと、残念な気持ちになりました。

Fine but I feel I paid too much for what it provided . I’ve stayed in better 4 star hotels
Pros:

Good location , restaurant food was nice as were the staff

Cons:

It was a bit old fashioned - felt like it needed a refurb. The roof top terrace needed some TLC as did the gym area - maybe it was out of season.
