Good Bargain in Barcelona!

Conveniently located near Barcelona’s airport...with free shuttle service. Hotel is modern with flat screen TVs. Bathrooms are ultra modern. However, swimming pool is indoors and very small! Bar and restaurant are not cheap and no other services are located near by. Hotel is located on edge of port with alot of truck traffic...but it is quiet during the evening!

Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks

Even better, right out the front door of the hotel is a city stop...only cost about $1.75 one-way and only a 30-40 minute ride to the Ramblas! Check with the info booths for information on late nite bus service tho...consider taking the "Aerobus" to the airport then a taxi to the hotel. This is considerably less expensive than a cab from downtown to the hotel (over 30 Euros!)

Not Impressed

The air conditioning was broken, so they opened our windows about two inches...it didn’t help....We were on a corner with traffic lights and listened to the trucks all night long....In the morning we had a bowl of cereal and coffe and toast...we were charged for a full brakfast rather than continental....On a whole, I would not reccommend this hotel....

Looks nice, but...

This hotel was recently renovated, and it shows - nice new furniture, comfortable beds, nice bathrooms. However, my stay was not enjoyable for a few reasons: Calling this an airport hotel is a stretch. We called the free shuttle upon arrival, but had to wait 40 minutes for it to arrive, then another 15-20 to get to the hotel. When leaving, the shuttle was running ~10 minutes late - not good when you’re on a schedule to catch a plane. The hotel is located in an industrial area with absolutely nothing nearby, but there is a bus stop right in front of the hotel that takes you downtown in about 30 minutes, but only until 11pm. The other issue - my room was close to 30C/86F all night, even when I had the thermostat set for air conditioning. The next morning I complained to the hotel about this and was told that since it was February, there was only heat available and not A/C, so there’s nothing he could do. Unimpressive. If you took this hotel, added decent climate control, and put it somewhere near either the airport or the city, it would be great. But as it stands, I would not recommend it.
