Hotel location is quite good, next to the mall ~ 5 minutes from the L1 subway, 12 minutes from the L5 subway, there are places to eat around, there is a small supermarket ~ of course you need to stroll on the way to the subway. The room is not big ~ very clean ~ cost is quite high ~ 5 stations from Sagrada Familia ~

I had 4 lovely nights at this small hotel.The hotel is modern and very clean with great facilities for food and drinks It is self catering and is set in a very quiet and safe residential area .There is a vibrant shopping area very close by with lots of useful shops , supermarkets, cafes and restaurants.There is a Lidl close by and an Aldi a bit further away. Also not far from the Metro The owner of the hotel is very friendly and we had lots of useful tips off him. He speaks English which is a bonus.

We had the good fortune to land at this hotel after an American Airlines flight was returned to Barcelona midair. We were shuttled to different places in the airport and waited almost 7 hours for information from AA. We were then given no paper voucher but sent to this hotel and told to give our names. This was an exercise in trust and we had no idea how it would turn out when we arrived at the hotel. Hotel staff were amazing, and helped us every step of the way. Apparently American Airlines was communicating in some fashion with the hotel even though the airlines was not communicating with us. There was a plane load of people at the hotel and the hotel staff handled this unexpected bevy of people with professionalism and good humor. The property itself was fantastic, three restaurants, rooftop pool and bar and fantastic food. We were so grateful to have landed at this hotel in what was otherwise very stressful situation. If you are looking for a hotel with exemplary staff close to the beach, with fantastic amenities, this is the hotel for you

The hotel offers a self catering option in a block of apartments opposite its entrance. We stayed in Apt 600 which was able to sleep 6. The apartment was slightly disappointing in as much as it was quite grubby and there was little thought given to fundamental things like proper mugs, 2 pillows not 1, bath sheets as opposed to rather small bath towels and minor irritations like there being no extractor fan in the kitchen or a safe for valuables. We had to buy basics like j cloths, washing up liquid and kitchen roll, it felt well used and in need of an update, we all agreed that it was ok for a week but you’d be pushing it to spend longer there. It needs a deep clean and the decor is badly in need of updating. On the plus side, there’s a nice supermarket nearby and plenty of nice bars and restaurants. The staff are very friendly and helpful and Barcelona is well worth a visit. There is no balcony or outside space, but there are lots of places to sit outside, which most people seem to do. We would go back to Barcelona but would look for somewhere nearer to the beach next time.

Very cool and funky hotel in a great area. Location: center city. Very convenient to many of the sites, metro, shopping (high end), hop on/ hop off bus, nice restaurants, etc Hotel overall: just COOL with a very laid back, fun vibe. Daily free yoga classes. Free walking tour. Amazing breakfast. Staff is very helpful and accommodating. No language issues. Decor is fabulous and eclectic. Excellent use of old and new. Elevators from the last century. Circular staircases surround the elevators. Yoga studio with colorful, comfortable pillows. Tile floors. Lots of shared/common areas including library, study, terrace (great sitting area for cards and a glass of wine), communal kitchen with fridges, micro, plates, glasses, flatware... The room: we got a double with ensuite bath. The room was TINY and dark. Had a bed and an open ”warerobe” with a rod and couple of shelves and that was it. One window with drapes looking out over a small, dark inner courtyard type square. Not even bedside tables. The bath was tiny and the shower floor was ceramic and treacherous when wet. No grab bars, so be had to be very careful. The room was quite off putting at first, but once you ”let it go”, it sort of fit with the experience. It made us socialize more and enjoy the common areas. Met a couple of interesting people... No TV -- anywhere, including common areas. At first it was strange, but we ended up enjoying the break from the noise -- it fits with the Casa vibe. Price/rate: very reasonable, @$100us per night plus tax.

Stayed at this hotel for 5 nights at the end of May. The room was quite small, but adequate for a few days, clean and the bed was very comfortable.. Overlooked the pool area and apartments. Had a fridge and safe. The reception staff were always friendly and helpful and advised us where to catch a bus or where the nearest Metro station was. The stop Clot , line 1, was nearest to the hotel and lead into the centre of Barcelona. The breakfasts were very good, Omelettes & eggs, bacon, sausage etc were cooked fresh to order. Cereals, meats, bread, pastries, fruit, juices etc were on the buffet and were constantly refilled. Restaurants and bars were within easy walking distance, as was the Torre Glories (like the London gherkin). Sagrada Familia was about 15 minutes walk. the beach was about 35 minutes walk (or catch the V25 bus) Overall a lovely Bank holiday break.

The showers was not cleaned when we arrived but all other days they where nice and clean. Could be good to bring some flip flops. Nice refridgerator. I didn’t use the kitchen to cook. They just had a sponge to clean your dishes with which was kind of groose, I would have wanted a regular dishbrush. The walls is thin so you hear your neighbours much, earplugs was a must for me. This was the most negative about the hostel for me. But The staff helped to say to other guests if they where to loud. Nice and comfortable beds. Nice with big lockers/storage in your room. Really kind and helpful staff. Nice rooftoop to sit and eat your breakfast. It is a local tax you have to pay when you check im, 20 euros for me and my friend for 4 nights. Good location. Close to several supermarkets, restaurants, bars, metro and bus stops and we also walked from the hostel to some sightseeing things to save some money. Easy to get to the airport.

Very well located right next to train station to Pl Catalunya where u can take the airport bus. Complimentary coffee, tea, milk, hot chocolate, etc.. after breakfast hours. Friendly reception. Can store luggage. Nearby are supermarkets, fruits stores n great restaurants. Highly recommended. Rooms are of good size. Paper cups provided for brushing teeth. Great air condition. Bed sheets were very clean. A decent size cupboard provided as well as a luggage rack. Super clean towels.

Please do not live in this hotel, it’s basically not in Barcelona, you have to take the public transportation up to 1 hour to get to Barcelona by transferring at least twice. The wi-fi is too unstable to even watch youtube video. Most importantly, some staff are NOT capable of their jobs. On the first day I came here, I called the reception and asked about the laundry fee, a Tall Thin old man told me and emphasized twice that the laundry fee is included in the room and said they would ask people to pick up my clothes. However, nobody came. When I called again, a middle-aged woman told me that I have to drop the clothes in the reception because they don’t have time for me now. As she said, I went down with my bag of clothes. However, an old man in the reception said I should not give them the clothes but to leave in my room. But they can ask people to drop the clothes in my room and then took them to the laundry. What a mess! When I picked up my laundry I was surprised that there was a long bill since the guy in reception clearly said the lauded was in the room fee. And when I went to the reception and asked, the girl with long blond hair confront with me and acted very condescending. To quote exactly what she said ‘No, you must misunderstood, you room even did not include the breakfast, it came with nothing, only the wi-fi. Laundry fee is not in the room, everyone knows!’ I explained patiently multiple times and asked her to maybe ask her college because I didn’t tell a lie but she rolled her eyes and literally said ‘I can’t do anything, if you don’t understand, you go ask my boss’ and pointed to the boss (an old man stand right besides her talking to another customer). Before I opened my mouth, this girl talked in Spanish to her ‘boss’ first and the old guy frowned. I was pretty sure she tell the truth. I didn’t say I don’t want to pay the laundry, but I have to check what I heard. The way these staff did their jobs and solve problems were one hundred percent unprofessional and annoying. I love traveling in Barcelona but these few people just made our impression on Spanish hotels go down.

We stayed in this hotel for one night prior to returning home. It was the third hotel that we stayed in during our trip to Spain. The hotel itself was very nice and the staff very friendly and helpful. The area was great with lots of restaurants and coffee shops. My only suggestions for improvements would be to have more than one english television channel. It was our last night and we were tired out so we would have liked to watch something besides BBC news. There was also quite a wait for an elevator.
