Categories

Cleanliness
8
Generally described as clean and new in several reviews, but multiple guests reported issues: occasional bad smells, visible grime around bathroom seals, and rooms not always vacuumed. Mixed but overall acceptable.
Service
9.6
Staff repeatedly described as very helpful, friendly and accommodating (reception, garage access, attentive service). One notable complaint about perceived opportunistic late check-in charges, but service quality was otherwise strongly positive.
Location
9.8
Very consistently praised: quiet neighbourhood, near public transport, restaurants, bakeries and (in some reviews) close to the sea. Location is a clear strong point.
Room Quality
8.2
Rooms noted as stylish with comfortable beds and good lighting; however there are negatives: awkward small step to bed, bathroom layout/privacy issues in some rooms, thin pillows, occasional wear (grubby seals) and upstairs noise.
Amenities
7.8
Good points: underground parking with direct access, in-room coffee machine, modern facilities. Shortcomings mentioned: no kettle/tea unless requested, pool/terrace closed for season (unexpected), empty minibar in at least one room.
Value for Money
7.6
Mixed impressions: excellent breakfasts and strong location add value, but complaints about extra charges (late check-in) and feeling over-charged reduce perceived value for some guests.
Food and Beverage
9.9
Breakfast repeatedly described as superb, abundant and varied — one of the best breakfasts several guests have had. F&B is a major positive.
Overall Experience
9.5
Overall very positive: modern hotel, comfortable rooms, excellent breakfast, and helpful staff create a strong stay despite some recurring operational issues (amenities, occasional cleanliness or bathroom layout problems).

Städtetrip in angenehmer Hotelatmosphäre
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt in einem schönen Viertel. Der Strand, die nächste Hauptstraße und die U-Bahn Stationen sind fußläufig schnell zu erreichen. Das Hotel ist ruhig gelegen.

Cons:

Es gab wenig Stauraum (Schränke) im Zimmer.
Beim Frühstück wäre eine andere Marmelade und Frischkäse schön.

Pros:

Location was a big plus if you don't like the city center. Very close to the beach and 2' walk from the Poblenou Rambla full of shops and restaurants.
Restaurant and bar space was excellent, a very comfortable area to enjoy relaxing times.

Cons:

Some minor inconveniences in the room which, if put together, left a lot to be desired:
Room fridge was essentially a big cupboard with glass door, no frost whatsoever.
Toilet door did not fully close, was kind of swinging door, you don't want that.
Slippers were not offered, had to request from reception.
No sofa or armchair, to sit, just a regular desk chair.
There was a 15-20cm step from the main area to the bed which provided far more risk of tripping than any value it was designed for.

Ruime kamer met uitstekende voorzieningen.
Hotel op loopafstand van de metro.

Not bad but I expected better
Pros:

Good breakfast choices

Cons:

We were 3 people, and the bathroom had no door.
We could hear the noises from other rooms.
No “room service” apparently as I asked for my drinks thanks to my birthday voucher, and they told me “you have to come downstairs to the bar”

Fine for short stay
Pros:

Ambience was good. Rooms and building is new

Cons:

They are over priced i booked 2 rooms from booking.com but they didnt offer free parking despite several request manager told us you would have got free parking if you book from our own website/extend our stay. They didnt show even a bit of courtesy and Breakfast was same everyday which makes daily breakfast boring.

Un hôtel remaquable
Pros:

Hotel très moderne située dans un quartier tranquille , mais un peu loin des visites si on veut y aller à pied. mais il y a le métro.
Le stationnement sous- terrain est facile d'accès et mène directement à la réception.
Le personnel est très serviable.
Le lit est confortable.
La salle de bain est très bien pensée
Il y a un très bon éclairage.
La fenêtre s'ouvre.
Machine à café Krupps
Le petit dèj est superbe , abondant et varié . Un des meilleurs que j'ai eu l'occasion de goûter.

Cons:

Le thermostat pour la température possède un écran digital qui fonctionne très mal . J'ai demandé l'aide d'un employé pour réussir à m'en servir. Une horreur cet appareil.

Chambre; Il y a une petite marche pour accéder au lit . On risque de se blesser car on n'y pense pas , ce n'est pas commun, un desing raté.
Plancher de la chambre au- dessus mal insonorisé.
