We liked the location it was a very pleasant 10 min walk to 'La Rambla' and the heart of the city. Also the breakfast was nice.

Our hotel room didnt have a window!! At first we thought this was ok because we had a/c but as time went by the room was claustrophobic and stuffy. Think we were just shoved into that room and over charged greatly!

convenient location, modern

rooms are somewhat noisy, even the interior rooms, due to ease of noise carrying from hallway thru door into room. Very little outside noise, but voices, door shutting, and footprints were very easily heard inside the room. This is probably due to poorly insulated doors/walls and lack of carpet throughout hotel rooms and hallway

The hotel was central to everything. it was very clean and modern. the staff were helpful and friendly.

The hotel bar was disappointing. It lacked a constant bar staff member, yet there were two door attendants. The bar was smaller than i had hoped and did not have as big of a selection of drinks as i would have liked!.
