“The hotel's central location in Barcelona, near La Rambla, makes it a practical base for exploring the city. I found the staff consistently helpful and responsive, addressing issues like room maintenance promptly. While compact, the air-conditioned rooms with balconies offer a private retreat after a day of cultural immersion.”
