“I see a budget-friendly spot for those prioritizing location and access to Barcelona's transport and nightlife, while the rooms, some with terraces, include essentials like AC and private bathrooms. However, be prepared for possible maintenance issues and, surprisingly, a less-than-welcoming attitude toward bicycles. It seems that accessibility could also pose a challenge due to the stairs.”
