Sant Boi de Llobregat, Barcelona Hotel Rooms at the Independent

This was great for a weekend get away. It was conveniently located as well as it had a shuttle. So a few tips for the shuttle, they come automatically between certain hours, about every 30 mins or so. When departing the airport with your bags you have to go the ground lot, note that it is outside and if you have a lot of baggage, you will want to grab a cart, a few Euros (not expensive, I think it was 2 Euros). There will be multiple shuttles, the shuttle however is labeled but it pulls into space number 5. The hotel is located literally around the corner to the public bus again about 2.15 Euros, the ride took about 20 mins, but the hotel provides shuttles into town you have to however sign up for this in advance. Drop off is Plaza de Espanza, where everything is in walking distance (if you are a walker that is or you can get an all day pass for under 8 Euros and hop on and off the bus). The hotel is right next to a mall, where there is a "Target" like store inside. The staff in spite of a few reviews I read, were very helpful and I did not have to wait to be checked in. The room was clean and very modern, particularly the shower and shower head. The only thing that I noticed at the end of my experience, was the blanket on the bed probably needed to be cleaned, but I think this may be the case for many hotels (unfortunately). However the sheets were clean and fresh and I could set the AC to a comfortable temperature which was great. Overall I would recommend.

great value very helpful fantastic quality food at dinner (set menu for 16 euros including a bottle of wine - great quality food) only drawback is its tedious getting into central barcelona and not much to do in the town itself
