10/10 Exceptional

For the price, I thought it was super good! All very close! Easy access! I'm going back, I've already made a new reservation for next month. The bathroom is a little small, for someone who is a little overweight it wouldn't be so interesting. But I liked it a lot, especially for the issue of extras such as the very clean towels freegobar air conditioning, the balcony itself is a love apart! All rustic and the detail of the beautiful Baroque ceiling. I recommend it for sure! Very dear staff!

4/10 Fair

Chambre et fenetre d'un autre age, avec matelas hs! murs en carton... Cohabitation avec les voisins obligatoire quand au bruit de la tv, de leur discussion et du bip du micro onde installé dans le couloir..... Jusqu'à 2 h du matin... Le prix a payer quand on a une chambre avec douche et toilettes... Mais que d'autres n'ont pas cette cjance et qu'ils font des allers-retours incessants dnas le couloir en claquant les portes!.... Bref 155€ la nuit... Tristesse....

Bof

On s’attendait à avoir au moins un balcon, on avait une chambre plus petite que la GAV avec 2 prises dans la chambre.

Bon emplacement, mais aucune insonorisation

Très bon emplacement, en revanche, gros point noir, et pas des moindres : ZÉRO insonorisation. Chambre située dans un immeuble fin 19e sans AUCUNE isolation acoustique; nous avions l’impression de dormir dans le couloir (qui résonne). Chambre peu lumineuse et confort sommaire.

Fine room. No one was available for checkout and it’s supposed to be 24 hours. Left at 3 am to catch a flight and no one was there

Moyen

Hotel vieillot mal isolé phoniquement, literie des années 80. Sinon pas trop cher et bien placé. Peut aller si vous êtes de passage et pas trop regardant sur votre confort.

Posizione ottima

L'hotel si trova in una posizione ottima, molto centrale e sicura. Metro e bus sono a 5 minuti di camminata. L'edificio è datato ma la stanza era in buone condizioni. Pulizie quotidiane ma forse un po' approssimative. Essendo nel corridoio vicino alla reception, effettivamente risulta un po' rumoroso di notte.

Que fuera un edificio antiguo conservado. El silencio. Muchas opciones alrededor para comer y también supermercados. Que la habitación tuviera nevera y la galeria con més y sillas me pareció genial. Todo funcionaba perfectamente. Servicios de taquillas.

Great location, being very close to the city centre, Ramblas and metro stops. In an old building, but very clean and good beds and bathroom. I'd happily stay here again.

Beautiful room and great value

I have booked many one-night stays near the city center of Barcelona during the past few years, and this hotel was by far my favorite. My spacious room had a beautiful 'sunroom' with lots of windows, in addition to the sleeping area and bathroom. This hotel offers many small comforts and conveniences: I really appreciated having a desk and a mini-fridge, and the bed was comfortable. Good shower with hot water. The hotel has a common area with an electric teakettle and microwave, which is also much appreciated and made for a more comfortable and convenient stay. It was very nice to have a self-service laundromat a half-block away so that I could do my laundry before packing my suitcase for my flight home to the United States. The distance from Plaza Catalunya (and the airport bus) is a bit farther than other comparably priced hotels in the area, but I think the size and quality of the rooms more than makes up for the extra walking distance. I would definitely stay here again.

Muy buena ubicación, cerca de Paseo de Gracia. Con lugares para comer y cafeterías. La habitación grande con un lindo balcón terraza. Los colchones necesitan cambio. Mejorar el desagüe del baño. Es un dos estrellas caro. Pré pandemia no pagaba más de 50 euros. Hoy $120‼️ sin desayuno.

La experiencia en general ha sido buena, por sacarle alguna pega la lejanía del baño y las manchas en la sabana protectora de colchon amarillas. Por lo demás hemos estado muy agusto.
