Reviews and Ratings
I arrived at the hotel to find that my room wasn't ready until the next day, which was a bit inconvenient. The room only had one receptacle to charge my phone, and it could do with a little updating. However, despite these minor issues, the hotel offered decent value for money.
The hotel was very clean and modern, with spacious rooms in close proximity to main attractions and vibrant Pinchos restaurants. The service was exceptionally friendly and accommodating, with a great location that offers easy access to various sites and transport options. Overall, a place worth considering for the price and value it provides.
The hotel is situated on the first floor overlooking the main street, emitting a strong cigar smoke odor. The rooms are at a high standard but facing the street, which could be noisy. The service was pleasant and above-and-beyond, offering services like dry cleaning and pet amenities.

The hotel was overall a decent choice with some drawbacks. The rooms were not as quiet due to street noise and the lack of functioning air conditioning, but they were exceptionally clean. The option to explore local cafes and restaurants instead of having breakfast onsite was a plus. The service was commendable but limited due to the lone staff member in the building. The location was convenient to public transport but lacked aesthetic appeal. The dining experience fell short, especially considering the limited options and the unconventional way meals were served.

The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms with a simple design, exactly like the pictures on the website. Although the location is convenient with easy access to nearby cafes and markets, the hotel can be a bit noisy with rumbling sounds persisting throughout the night.
The hotel has a great location near Parallel metro station, making it convenient to explore Barcelona.
