Barcelona was a little more expensive that expected. The street this is on gets noisy at night and they have earplugs available. Convenient to walk around el born and old part of the city. However… we stayed at the beginning and end of the trip. The first room was fine, was the Double plus balcony. Second time same format of a room and the shower was in the middle of the room with no opaque glass or full curtain. The toilet was it a closet. Very odd. Also the design is quirky — neon lights in the room and ropes that you have to push through to enter the room.

The location, breakfast buffet and surrounding restaurants were good. It’s a unique hotel with a different vibe. Overall we enjoyed our stay. The only con was the A/C in our room didn’t work well and couldn’t be adjusted, so we didn’t get much relief from the heat.

The A/C didn’t work in the first room we were in and the shower didn’t drain. After we informed the reception of the issue, they moved us to another room.

We styaed here for one night before we went to Sitges for a wedding weekend. It was a unique building and the rooms were comfortable. The location was perfect for walking around Born. The service was excellent.

The hotel has a lot of character and is a fun stay for couples and friends. It is located right in the heart of El Born but still safe and quiet in the evenings. Would definitely stay again!
