“Excellent modern no-frills hotel”
Hesperia Sant Joan Suites is incredibly good value for modern no-frills accommodation. All staff seemed bi-lingual and all were extremely helpful. Internet computer free of charge in atrium for guests' use. Restaurant and bar also very good value - 3 course (+ beer) lunchtime buffet is an absolute must for value. Room well equipped and clean, although sat. TV had very few channels in English. On the minus side, the Hesperia is, however, not too easy to find, and is a very long way out from the city centre ( 13-14 euros by Taxi) , being beyond the usual city tourist maps and not a big enough feature on smaller scale maps, although fairly close for airport transfers? Although situated at the end of the 'Diagonal', this is not on most maps we could find! This minor incovenience, however, is overcome, to my mind, by sheer value for money, and the daily journey by public transport into the city allowed me to see much more of the real city than I would have, if based closer to the centre?
