“Didn't expect it to be as great as it was!”
Stayed for over a week last month, as I had some university research at Terrassa. Far from Barcelona center, but if you have a car or don't mind 35-45 min by public transit, it's great value. The hotel is run by 4 or 5 courteous ladies who seem cross-trained to do everything (I only saw one gentleman there, mostly at nights). A couple of them spoke good English. The main two items I needed were internet and parking (I had a car and I had to be logged on for hours; they would be an extra 25 per day in many hotels). Had FREE wireless internet, good speed, in the room. May be a recent thing, as others here said it was free only in the lobby. Need to renew the internet passwd every 48 hours from front desk. Can park free on the small block of streets around; many spots, no parking meters. Safe area. The rail stn is about 10-15 min walk. The breakfast was pretty filling - 6.50 Euros, with hot eggs and sausage. The kitchen or front desk ladies will whip up a dinner till pretty late at night for around 12 Euros - Pastas, pizzas, hot bread and coffee/wine. Not bad if you are lazy to go out. Can get a good cafe con leche 24 hours; Great for late-night types like me. Clean room, though the beds weren't too big and the mattress not too thick. 15-channel TV with CNN and BBC. I got everything I wanted; Certainly won't stay anywhere else on a return visit to the Barcelona area!
