Room is very clean, decent size with the money I paid. Staff is very friendly. Dafne helped me with my checking-in, checking out, smooth, quick. She also helped me packing breakfast while we were on a rush to tour. I didn’t pay attention on the shops nearby, but the location is only 2 or 3 minutes away. They have free breakfast with fresh squeezed juice. It would take less than 15 minutes to get to La Rambla.
