We stayed here for my wife's 40th birthday weekend. Carla, the manager on duty, arranged for a special touch with a celebtratory cake as a surprise! The rooms were clean and well stocked and we had a wonderful view of the Sagrada Familia from our balcony. Great location, walkable to all major tourist sites and close to public transport links on the Passage de Gracia. I would definitely recommend for any first time visitors to Barcelona.
