Buena ubicación, hotel muy bonito y agradable.
Pros:

Hotel muy bonito en cuanto a decoración, muy limpio tanto estancias comunes como habitaciones. Personal muy amable. Es un hotel con buenísima ubicación o por lo menos para el evento al que fuimos, cerca de Plaça Espanya y además era una zona muy tranquila y peatonal.

Cons:

Teniendo en cuenta que es una opinión personal que puede coincidir o no con otros usuarios, a mi parecer las paredes eran finas como el papel, se podía escuchar perfectamente las conversaciones de otros clientes. Y respecto al baño, todo en general muy bien excepto la altura de la bañera. Debes agarrarte al tirador de la pared para poder tanto meterte a la bañera como salir de ella sin resbalarte. Quizás eso es lo que menos me gustó, te distraes un poco y acabas en el suelo. Por cierto, la luz azul de los pasillos daba un poco de miedo.

Pros:

Buen desayuno continental. Buena iluminación. Las zonas comunes, al ser invierno, no las pudimos usar, pero tienen buena pinta. Personal muy amable y servicial.

Cons:

Las habitaciones tienen ventana que dan al pasillo de acceso, que está abierto, por lo tanto poca intimidad. No hay secador en la habitación, aunque lo puedes pedir en recepción.

Pros:

Common areas and “honesty” space/bar, terrace and breakfast were really nice.

Cons:

The mildew buildup in the bathroom and obviously water flood-caused swollen baseboards in the room were off-putting. Tired room decor..
