Categories

Cleanliness
7
Mixed reports: several guests praised the hotel as very clean, but multiple serious cleanliness complaints appear (towels smelling of acetic acid, and a report of bedbug bites), so overall cleanliness is below the target rating.
Service
10
Consistently praised across many reviews: friendly, attentive staff and instances of helpful staff changing rooms when needed. One isolated comment about staff not engaging very early in the morning on a bedbug report, but overall service is rated excellent.
Location
9.7
Very strong sentiment: repeatedly described as a perfect/ideal location for sightseeing, close to attractions and metro, quiet at night and in a desirable neighborhood (Sagrada Família/modernist area).
Room Quality
8.4
Generally comfortable and spacious rooms with good beds and balconies/view on higher floors, but some reports note dated rooms, tiny 'junior suite' spaces, problematic bathroom doors and at least one dangerous shower incident — overall slightly above average but not flawless.
Amenities
8.2
Breakfast and basic amenities are good, but guests noted issues with TV signal/programming, inconvenient device-charging options, missing small hygiene items (cotton buds), and occasional intrusive mechanical noises.
Value for Money
6.8
Several guests explicitly complained about poor value (overpriced for room size, 'no value for money', need for upgrades), so this category is notably below the target rating.
Food and Beverage
9.8
Breakfast is frequently described as excellent, complete and a strong positive in many reviews, supporting a very high score for F&B.
Overall Experience
9.7
Most stays are described as very positive: comfortable, convenient for sightseeing, friendly staff and good breakfasts leading to a strongly positive overall experience despite a few notable negatives.

Abgesehen von dem Problem mit den Stichen war das Hotel super.
Pros:

Die Lage war super, das Personal sehr freundlich, das Frühstück ok

Cons:

Am letzten Morgen hatte mein Mann mehrere Stiche nach dem Aufwachen am Körper. Es waren sehr wahre Bettwanzen. Das habe ich beim Auschecken erwähnt, es hat das Personal aber nicht wirklich interessant, vielleicht weil es sehr früh am Morgen war.

No value for money
Pros:

Locatie was prima

Cons:

De term “unior suite” doet geen eer aan de ka
Er die zo groot is als een postzegel.
Schandalig om daar zoveel geld voor te vragen.
Piep klein bed maar ja groter past ook niet.
Douchen was levensgevaarlijk omdat er tijdens het douchen spontaan kokend heet water uit de kraan kwam!
Tijd voor een flinke upgrade van dit achterstallig hotel
