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 location is nice, within walking distance from the center/port and near plenty of dining options. The dining experience is acceptable with a good variety but not changing daily. Overall, a good value for money stay with some contrast in room experience.

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.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious but a bit noisy as they face the main road. Their design definitely stands out, quite a rarity for hotels in Barcelona. Despite feeling a bit dim, the rooms offered ample space, which is a plus for Barcelona standards.

The hotel is conveniently located near the metro station, making it easy to explore the city, and the staff were incredibly helpful and kind during my stay. However, the dining experience was a bit lackluster with limited options available. The rooms were spacious, modern, and very clean, providing a comfortable night's rest. The location is great for accessing various attractions and the neighborhood feels safe and pleasant. Overall, a happy and worthwhile experience.
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. However, the rooms were noisy due to overlooking the busy Parallel avenue and had issues with air conditioning.
