“Great value, great location, easy walking and metro, as advertised.”
Hotel is across the street from the metro L3 (green) line--easy hop to many nice locations. The 10-piece public transportation ticket makes it very affordable; mix and match between metro, train, bus. Also, if you like to walk, you can get to many great places by foot: the Port, the Rambla, the Rambla del Mar (beautiful at sunset), Plaza Catalluna, Paseo de Gracia, even Plaza Espana (very little there). Small supermarket, fruit stands and bakeries around the corner from hotel offer convenience. Old residential area, always felt safe. Would have been nice to have a coffee maker in the room, but a bottle of hot water from the restaurant and Starbuck's VIA worked well. Amazing collection of toiletries. Hotel lobby could use an uplift. We loved our stay and would definitely choose this hotel again.
