Hotel is situated in a fairly busy street. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly greeted by hotel staff. Checked in was a breeze. Particular kodos to the young porter Mohamed who helped with the luggage and made suggestion to a nearby restaurant within walking distance which served excellent breakfast. Our room was fairly spacious. Bathroom is uniquely looking, with sliding door closing the toilet and the shower. We did not eat at the hotel and thus cannot comment on its dining offerings. La Rambla street is virtually a block to the left as you walk out of the hotel. A hop-on hop-off bus station from the private bus company is right in front of the hotel. The blue-line station from the city-provided Barcelona Bus Turistic is just a block away across the street. A lot of restaurants and shopping are close by. In other words, the location is quite prime for a visit. But be aware that this part of Barcelona has busy and large streets and so the walk can be daunting and tiresome after awhile.
We wanted to try out different eateries around this absolutely beautiful city and so had our meals outside of hotel and found that local food was excellent. Barcelona is vibrant with young, beautiful people. Will need taxi ride - which hotel staff helpfully and promptly arranged - to the Sagrada Familia Cathedral and Park Guell, the two attractions that we visited. We wish that we could have stayed more than our 2-day stay and do highly recommend this hotel. Would definitely return ourselves.
