Property is in a good location for the metro, just a few minutes walk away, and there are side streets with nice bars and cafes all around, with a main road also close by. First, criticisms: I emailed before visiting to check they had an iron and irnoning board I could use when I got there; they replied saying, of course we do! (I've visited hotels in Spain before where they have not had an iron; yes, really) However, when the iron arrived at my room it had a sticker on saying DO NOT USE WATER. So a team iron, with no steam, ironing creased cotton shirts. Not a great outcome, and for what - the price of someone going out and buying a new steam iron. That's a bit cheap, folks. Also - and this is maybe a UK thing - but two single beds pushed together is not a double bed. It's two single beds, pushed together. And it they're both made up as single beds, they're DEFINITELY single beds, pushed together. However, the hotel's greatest strength was the staff I interacted with. Not the daytime staff, hardly had any occasion to speak with them, but the duo on in the evening wer really excellent - helpful, thoughtful, welcoming and kind. With staff like these, I'll forgive the beds and iron and give you a five-star rating.

Poor room layout and design. Requested queen and ended up with two singles, both with very poor mattresses.

Stayed in an XL room on the 2nd floor. Can get a little noisy between 10pm-2am at the nearby restaurant. No fault of the hotels though. Loved the modern vibe, the no kids, the rooftop terrace, and the friendly staff. Also in a very convenient location to explore the city.

Excellent!!!

Our stay was amazing!!! Location is perfect for several activities in Barcelona. We also went on the El Born tour organised by the hotel, which was a great way to know the local area and meet other guests.
