FANTASTIC Stay!

friendly staffrelaxed atmosphereweak pressure

The staff WAS friendly and helpful . The rooftop bar offered amazing views and a very relaxed atmosphere, I also enjoyed the great music. I found the location convenient, as it was close to many restaurants and bars.

The room LACKED a refrigerator, which would have been really convenient for storing drinks and snacks. the shower pressure was not very strong and barely any water came out.

The location was great. I walked to many tourist sites and the gothic quarter. many nearby restaurants existed. the staff were friendly and helpful. we also had chocolates while we waited for our taxi.

the room lacked cleanliness. i found stained pillows and dirty floors in the corners. it gave the room a cheap and low-quality feel, especially given the high price.

The location is quite convenient. It is close to the Arc de Triomf metro station. The staff members were friendly and helpful. The rooftop bar offered great city views.

Soundproofing was definitely an issue. I could hear noises from the street. There was hardly any water pressure in the shower. The breakfast coffee did not taste good at all.
