    terrace coffee
    air conditioning lifesaver
    paint odor

    I loved how our room had a cute little terrace where we enjoyed our morning coffee, and the air conditioning was a lifesaver in the heat! It was nice to unwind by the pool after a long day of sightseeing. The only downside was some paint odor that lingered a bit, but it didn't ruin our stay overall. 😊

    clean room
    balcony view
    noisy environment

    We had a fantastic family stay, enjoying the proximity to the metro and the bustling city center. The room was clean and spacious, and we loved having a balcony to relax on after exploring Barcelona with our little dog. We also appreciated the charming old building vibe.

    My kids wished for a quieter atmosphere, as some noise from neighbors disrupted our naps. A soundproofing upgrade would be ideal for families.

    great location
    communication challenge

    We had a great time staying with a group of friends. The location was perfect, close to bus and metro stations. We loved visiting the local markets and the beach. Our quadruple room was spacious and clean. The staff let us store our bags before check-in, which was super convenient!

    The only downside was that communication in English was a bit challenging, but it was manageable overall.

    quiet room
    helpful staff
    limited staff assistance
    misleading dormitory options

    The room was quiet and nicely sized for a couple, providing a peaceful retreat after a day’s exploration. Staff assistance varied—one was notably helpful while others offered limited support. Trying the risotto was a highlight, adding a tasty touch to my stay.

    Comfortable room, convenient location with easy access to a nearby metro station, including robust amenities like air conditioning and a flat-screen TV in my double room with private bathroom.

    hot water pressure
    uncomfortable beds
    misleading description

    Good pressure for hot water.

    We booked a double room with a balcony, but ended up with a confusing open space instead. The receptionist was dismissive about our complaint, insisting that it was a terrace, which was misleading. The beds were extremely uncomfortable, and I could hardly sleep due to the noise from the other rooms and a malfunctioning boiler. The towels were outdated and thin, which did not justify the price we paid for our stay.
