Lovely hotel
Pros:

Lovely hotel near the gothic area of Barcelona. Friendly staff. Good standard of rooms, breakfast was very good. Small but nice roof top pool, more of a plunge one. No loungers but do have deck chairs, nice to relax in.

Cons:

Beware when walking home at night, small groups of lads on the lookout for easy targets.

Very good stay!
Pros:

The location was excellent. Staff members were exceptional and very helpful! The room was very clean!

Cons:

The beds and the shower/bathroom sink were basically in the same space and there was not much privacy. We were 2 friends so that was an issue because even though there was a way to move one of the mirrors to conceal the shower space, still there was not a lot privacy and also there was a mirror right opposite the shower (glass) door so that meant that basically you could be seen everywhere in the room while showering.

Mitigée
Pros:

L'emplacement en plein centre de Barcelone.

Cons:

Aucune intimité dans la salle de bain. Lorsqu'il y a du monde, il est difficile de trouver une place dans la salle du petit-déjeuner et beaucoup de choses manquent au buffet

Fantastic stay, worth the money
Pros:

The location was perfect on the doorstep of El Born. The staff were all so friendly and accommodating. Some really nice touches like cava on arrival and special birthday treats for my partner that made the trip very special. The bar and pool were great! It's small, but it's ideal for cooling off after a day of sightseeing.

Cons:

Honestly - nothing! It was great.

Pros:

The location is fantastic, offering easy transportation and quick access to all the main sightseeing spots. The rooms were very clean and tidy. The highlight of our stay was definitely the pool and rooftop area—the views are absolutely excellent! Also, I appreciate their eco-friendly approach, though it's good to know in advance that this means there are no fridges in the rooms.

Cons:

The immediate streets surrounding the hotel can feel a bit uncomfortable at times due to some unfortunate street activity and minor disturbances among the local transients.

Pros:

Jó reggeli szép helyen, jó elhelyezkedés, üdvözlőital, sok párna.

Cons:

Erkélynek adták, de inkább csak kilépő volt a szobához, az ágyról - az elhelyezkedése miatt - nehéz volt leszállni. A galambok használták a medencét, az asztalokról nem takarították az ürüléküket.

Aanrader voor citytrip Barcelona
Pros:

Goede locatie met een mooie open glazen bovenverdieping met klein zwembad. 35 min met metro naar de Fira, 10 min met bus van de zee.
‘s avonds activiteiten die leuk zijn om de oude stad te leren kennen en masterclass cocktails en sangria maken.

Cons:

Hygiëne kan iets beter, maar de betonvloer is ruw en gespikkeld, geeft een verkeerd beeld.

Lage sehr gut, Personal schlecht
Cons:

Der Pool ist nur 70 cm tief! Und ist eher ein Tauben Bad. Das Personal an der Bar ist sehr unaufmerksam, die Tische haben geklebt und waren nicht aufgeräumt .
