My stay at this hotel was truly enjoyable, with clean and cozy rooms and a convenient private bathroom with a great shower. The location is superb, being in the center of Barcelona with easy access to transportation options. However, the dining experience lacked variety in food choices, and the price could be more competitive.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was just like in the photos, with a great shower and an extra bed, and fortunately, it had a private bathroom. The service was excellent, offering car hire and efficient housekeeping. The location was ideal, being in the center of Barcelona. However, I wished the dining experience had more variety, especially when it came to fried rice. The facilities were top-notch and offered everything I needed during my stay.

What a fantastic find! The hotel boasts a great location close to the center and main tourist attractions, but it's not far from the airport either. The rooms are just as pictured, with private bathrooms, which is always a plus. While the dining options include energy bars, the service is top-notch; you can even arrange a car hire or airport shuttle. Overall, a great value for the money.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable with private bathrooms, but the lack of an extra bed was a downside. The location was great, near two major metro stations and in a vibrant downtown area. However, the dining options were limited to traditional Marche products, which may not suit all guests.

I was lucky to have a room with a private bathroom just like in the photos, and it had a great shower. The location was not far from the metro and relatively close to the airport, near two big metro stations, Passeig de Gracia and Universitat, and an Argentinean restaurant. The service was top-notch, offering car hire, housekeeping, laundry, airport shuttle, and tours/ticket assistance. However, the dining experience lacked options, although the facilities were excellent overall.

The rooms are clean and comfortable, though having a private bathroom was a plus. The shower was fantastic, just like the photos showed. The service was efficient, and although additional shuttle services were paid, they were worth it for convenience. The dining experience with salads was satisfactory. However, the facilities, while modern, lacked certain amenities. Overall, a decent value for money stay.
