This was a great hotel in Barcelona. The staff made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived. The hotel was clean and very nice in the lobby. The rooms were spacious for a Barcelona hotel. Great shower. Great mattress. The breakfast was outstanding and we enjoyed getting R&R on the rooftop by the pool. The only weird thing was coupons for towels at the pool that were 20E if we lost them. Seems like that is something they could figure out a little better. The location was excellent. Metro station(s) were easy access. 10 minute walk to P de Gracia. 20-30 minutes to get to El Gotic which was a really nice walk. Highly recommend.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel needs some remodeling. The set up in the rooms with the bathroom is horrible. Why would you have such a big high tub and not just a shower. Went to the pool a couple of time the lounge chairs for a hotel like that to have chairs that have holes in them and really worn out is crazy. Also they have a bar/lunch area up there that was suppose to be open but I had to call down to front desk to see if anyone was work just to get a towel.
This is the tub/shower.  To the left is the sink.

We really liked this property. It is in a very convenient location for exploring the city. The staff are so helpful and welcoming. The property itself is clean. My daughter loved the small pool. I think if there was a coffee machine in the room this would have made us happier!
